L’Escala is one of the Costa Brava’s main tourist destinations. It’s easy to see why. It is set in unbeatable surroundings with the Montgrí massif, the Empordà wetlands, small and large beaches, and tiny coves nestled between rocky cliffs. There are all sorts of activities going on in the town, such as sardana dancing, performances of havaneres (colonial sea shanties), the Anchovy Festival, the Fish Suquet (stew) Gastronomic Days and so much more… There are plenty of sports on offer as well, such as mountain biking, hiking, diving, etc. And as for cultural experiences, how does a visit to the Greco-Roman ruins of Empúries sound? L’Escala is a seaside town full of life; come and experience it for yourself!
