Why go
The town gives context to a coast often explored through Calella, Llafranc and Tamariu alone. Its association with Josep Pla adds a literary thread, while the history of cork manufacturing explains another source of local prosperity. Come for the urban centre, then choose a separate coastal settlement if you want to add sea views.
What to look for
- Narrow streets spread out from Plaça Nova.
- Sant Martí church stands near the central square.
- The surviving factory tower recalls the town’s cork industry.
Useful to know
- Start around Plaça Nova for the inland town, rather than navigating directly to one of its coastal villages.
- Plan the Calella–Llafranc footpath or Sant Sebastià lighthouse as an additional coastal outing.
