One of the many charms of the Baix Empordà is its privileged location between the sea and the mountains. A short distance from France, with the sea to the east and the Pyrenees to the north, less than an hour from the historic city of Girona and the Garrotxa volcanic area, and a hundred kilometres from the Olympic city of Barcelona, the Baix Empordà is the ideal starting point for making one- or two-day outings to nearby but very different places like the Dalí Museum in Figueres, the ruins of Empúries or the Jewish Quarter of Girona. Below we recommend a series of visits you can make during your stay.
