This quaint village appears to be frozen in time, embracing the Mediterranean style of classic white dwellings punctuated with vibrant hues from iconic Catalan Art Nouveau structures like the Blue House or Serinyana’s House, the Colom Castle, The Pont House, and The Rahola’s House. One must not miss the stunning Santa Maria de Cadaqués church, erected between the 16th and 17th centuries, boasting a towering baroque altarpiece of 76 feet in height.
- Boat trip with free-time stop
We embark on our BRAND NEW 2019 BOAT journey trailing the coastline of Cap de Creus Nature Park, making our way to Cadaqués. Here, you will have an uninterrupted break of 90 minutes to walk around and appreciate this stunningly scenic fishing village.
Situated amidst the many towns and hamlets that dot the Costa Brava, one distinct settlement shines through due to its unique character and originality: Cadaqués. Nestled on the east of the Cap de Creus peninsula, it’s often touted as the jewel of the Costa Brava, with its history reaching back to the time when the Ibers used to rule these areas. The term ‘Cadaqués’ could possibly have come about from the morphing of ‘Cap de Quers’ (cape of stones), attributed to the multitude of stones found on the Cap de Creus.
Cadaqués is renowned for attracting a myriad of artists, with Salvador Dalí being particularly notable. Many of Dalí’s artworks have drawn inspiration from the landscapes of the Cap de Creus. His residence in Portlligat has now been converted into a house-museum which is open for public viewing.
