Cadaqués

Cadaqués is a picturesque whitewashed fishing town on the northern Costa Brava, set in a wide bay on the Cap de Creus peninsula in Alt Empordà, Catalonia. Once relatively isolated behind coastal hills, it has preserved a compact historic centre of narrow cobbled streets and low houses clustered around the church of Santa Maria. Wikivoyage
