The Costa Brava stretches along the Catalan Mediterranean coast, combining historical monuments with natural landscapes. Girona Cathedral features the widest Gothic nave in the world, while the Salvador Dalí Museum in Figueres houses the largest collection of the surrealist artist's works. The 10th-century monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes sits above the coast overlooking the sea. The Greek and Roman ruins of Empúries document over a thousand years of Mediterranean settlement. Medieval villages such as Pals and Peratallada have preserved their fortified structures and cobbled streets. The Marimurtra Botanical Garden in Blanes displays Mediterranean and exotic plant species along the cliffs. The coastline offers beaches of various sizes, from the wide sandy stretches at Platja d'Aro to small coves tucked between rocks. The Medes Islands form a marine reserve for divers and snorkelers. The coastal path Camí de Ronda connects many towns, passing through pine forests and along clifftops.
