Costes del Garraf, Protected coastal area in Garraf, Spain

The limestone cliffs along Costa del Garraf extend for 26 kilometers, creating a dramatic coastline with numerous caves and geological formations along the Mediterranean Sea.

The region contains archaeological evidence of prehistoric human settlements within its extensive network of caves, dating back to ancient civilizations that inhabited the area.

The coastal zone integrates with the Penedès wine region, where numerous vineyards produce local wines and cavas using traditional Mediterranean grape varieties.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails throughout the protected area, with designated parking spots and information centers located at main entrance points.

The area forms part of the Natura 2000 network, protecting specific Mediterranean plant species that grow exclusively in the limestone soil conditions.
