Fredosa cove
Fredosa cove is located seven kilometres from the centre of Cadaqués, and offers spectacular natural scenery. The combination of the colour of the water with the surrounding rock formations is fascinating. It has spectacular views and is good for anchoring and water sports. It is also notable for its small size (only eight metres long).
As it is located very close to the Cap de Creus lighthouse, it offers all kinds of services, from parking to leave the car to a restaurant and bar area where you can eat after enjoying this beautiful area of the Costa Brava.
Visit Cadaqués
A picture postcard village
Cadaqués is one of the unique towns on the Costa Brava. Its geographical location in the middle of the rugged Cap de Creus led it to be practically isolated until the end of the 19th century. This peculiarity has enabled it to conserve a significant part of the original layout of many of its narrow, picturesque streets.
As a whole, the old quarter of Cadaqués is a protected historical area and has been declared a Cultural Asset of National Interest. Strolling through its narrow streets, surrounded by marvellous whitewashed houses with brightly coloured shutters, is one of the great charms of Cadaqués.
Its fantastic beaches and coves, sculpted by the effects of the tramontana wind, served as inspiration for the brilliant painter Salvador Dalí, who took up residence in the neighbouring town of Portlligat.
