We are based in the Yachting Marina of Palamos, a lively costal town in Costa Brava in the province of Girona just over one hour from Barcelona and half-hour from the closest international airport in Girona. Palamos lays at the centre of Costa Brava, a beautiful stretch of land in the Baix-Emporda’ region of Catalunya in the north-east area of Spain, bordering France and nestled between the white peaks of the Pyreness mountains and the cobalt blue Mediterranean waters of the Balearic Sea.

travel destination

The area where we are based is widely recognised as one of the most beautiful destinations in Europe, gaining a few years ago National Geographic’s Best World-Travel Destination award. The region has natural beauty in plenty and diversity, with breath-taking seaside, countryside and mountain landscapes blessed by an amazing Mediterranean climate. It is also the very culturally rich region that Salvador Dali (and many other artists) chose as his home, dotted with a myriad of picturesque seaside fishermen villages, countryside medieval tows of architectural awe and plenty of cultural events all-year round.

cuisine

best in the world

ALL YOU NEED

The cuisine is one of the best in the world, with legendary Michelin-starred chefs as Albert Adria’ at home here along with the more informal traditional cuisine that equally excels thanks to the outstanding products available locally. Costa Brava is also one of the wealthiest and best managed area of Spain, ensuring that the infrastructure supporting national and international tourism is one of the best in Europe.

marine life

Last but not least, the waters of Costa Brava are one of the most rich in marine life of the Mediterranean Sea, making it an ideal spot for sport-fishing, with a huge variety of fish species, as well as for leisure boating for simple contemplation of the beauty of nature.
