Palamós is a traditional Catalan fishing village located at the north end of a large bay and one of the best preserved fishing villages on the Costa Brava. From the Fish Museum to the daily fish market, where you can buy directly from local fishermen, Palamós is all about the sea but has retained much of the traditional small-town vibe unlike other resort towns along the coast. Aside from the seafood, Palamós is known for its white sand beaches, hidden coves and is a popular destination for swimming, sailing and windsurfing. Choose between private coves for total retreat, or join the crowds on one of the more popular beaches. At sunset or sunrise, head to the lighthouse for unbeatable views of the bay and the Gavarres mountains, in the distance. If you get there early enough in the morning, you can watch the fishing boats setting off for the day, just as they have for centuries. Sounds promising?

Live like a local in Palamós
You can relax and take it slow in the quaint fishing village of Palamós. There are no tourist crowds so you will have the white sandy beaches and hidden coves almost to yourself. Watch in the morning as the fishing boats head out to sea and then enjoy a fresh seafood dinner in the evening while the sun sets. The best way to enjoy the ambience of Palamós is to stay in one of the many accommodations available. Almost all are within walking distance of beaches, restaurants, and shopping. Get to know the locals, shop in local markets, go down to the harbour and meet the fishing boats as they return. You may be lucky enough to get the seafood that Palamós is most famous for- prawns!
