Groupon's Guide To Costa Brava

Also known as Spain's Wild Coast, Costa Brava offers visitors a mixture of old-world Catalonian charm, modern-day excitement, and Mediterranean dining opportunities. With some of the finest Blue Flag beaches in Europe, water sports enthusiasts can make the most of sailing, swimming, diving, and jet-skiing opportunities.

Historic sights and museums are aplenty in the Costa Brava region, as well as the ancient Greek and Roman ruins which can be found outside the seaside town of L’Escala. A leisurely day out may be spent in the fortified hilltop town of Begur, where tourists may stroll along winding cobbled streets featuring Moorish and colonial townhouses, quaint bars, and high-end boutiques. Just outside Cadaqués, in a converted fishermen's cottage, the Salvador Dali House Museum can be visited, while below the hilltop castle in Palafrugell, the Cap Roig Botanical Gardens allure with cascading terraces, cactus plants, and coastal views.
