Cadaques is a picturesque fishing village on Costa Brava near the French border, where the foothills of the Pyrenees fall into the Mediterranean. It can be reached from the north via Llanca along the coastal road or via the Rosas mountains. Thanks to this location, it is off the beaten track of the tourist centres of Costa Brava with their multi-storey buildings and hotel monstrosities, and is thus able to maintain its original character. Salvador Dali's home can be visited in Port Lligat, and Dali's theatre museum in Figueras. The area offers not only many water sport activities, but also hiking trails with good trail signs along the Costa Brava or at the edge of the Pyrenees for hikers. Local sporting activities: Relaxing, eating, snorkelling, swimming, hiking, sailing, cycling, fishing, surfing, water skiing, mountain biking and diving.
