General
To the north-east, and the most northerly of Spain’s Mediterranean regions, Catalonia’s coastline is interspersed with sheltered coves and white-washed fishing villages such as Rosas. Medieval walled villages stand amongst the pine-clad rocky Catalonian mountains rising sharply from the coast, where the beaches vary from wide, long sandy stretches to pretty small pine-backed coves. The region’s largest city, Barcelona, has a continental atmosphere and offers an enticing mix of history and culture.
Places to Visit
Barcelona
The ancient capital of Catalonia with excellent shops and bustling cafés in the Ramblas quarter. The highlight is Gaudi’s incredible unfinished cathedral, La Sagrada Familia.
Figueres
A peaceful Catalan town, and home to Salvador Dali’s fascinating museum with its unique dome roof.
Gerona
This ancient Catalonian town has a wonderful 14th century cathedral. A maze of alleys and cobbled streets wind through the pretty old quarter and this area looks particularly attractive at night.
Cadaqués
Once a summer retreat for wealthy Catalans, today this popular village next to a wonderful beach has a pretty harbour and cafés lining narrow streets.
Pals
A medieval hilltop village perched high above the sea with wonderful views of the bay and Medas Islands.

A mixture of the old and the new, Sitges developed as a summer resort for the wealthy citizens of Barcelona.
