Indicates location of property Spain > Catalonia (Costa Brava) > Costa Brava > Begur BEGUR - This charming hillside town with its cobbled streets offers the visitor an excellent choice of Catalan restaurants, tapas bars and shops. The main square has entertainment in the high season and there are many late night bars and a couple of discos. The overall atmosphere is very Spanish with local artists` paintings and crafts displayed in the square during the summer. Every Wednesday there is a market sellling fruit/veg clothes and accessories. There are excellent supermarkets,specialist fishmonger, butchers` shops and freshly baked bread available in many shops. The old town of Begur is situated some seven hundred feet above sea level, 3 km inland and enjoys superb views over the coastline. Enjoy a gentle stroll around the cobbled streets of this romantic town which shelters at the foot of a 16th century castle. This fortified town with its preserved walls and five magnificent keeps (16th and 17th century) is built on three hills, with the castle, the town and a residential area on each, all within an outcrop standing in the Mediterranean Sea and providing the perfect area to explore over and over again. There are five bays around Begur, all with beaches and particular attractions, each surrounded by wooded hills hiding quiet roads and beautifully located private villas and homes. The many hidden sandy coves and picturesque fishing villages are surrounded by the region's characteristic high, rugged hills.The town itself has two main squares, very good local bars and restaurants, places to sit and relax with many open all year. Concerts are frequent attractions and every summer there is regular traditional Catalan dancing – an attraction for the locals that provides a classic spectacle for you. Here you can find most facilities including banks, supermarkets and specialist food shops. The lively Wednesday morning market selling clothes, artefacts, flowers, plants and fresh produce is a big attraction for tourists and locals. There are strong Catalan and local traditions. History, arts and crafts, mixed with exclusive shops in exceptional surroundings – and all five minutes from a beach. There is much to see and do in this region including a visit to LA BISBAL (about 12 km away) - the pottery capital of Cataluña, or the nearby fortified villages of PALS and PERATALLADA which are steeped in history and an absolute delight to visit. Some of the most inviting towns are southeast of Girona. Calella de Palafrugell embodies the appeal of the region. The main activity here is simply soaking in the beauty of the forested cliffs hugging the beach and the rock formations jutting into the azure Mediterranean. This can be done quite nicely while sunning on the sand or sitting in a seaside cafe. Or, for those feeling more active, a 30-minute-long, cliff-top walk beside the sea provides panoramic views on the way to Llafranch, another scenic village. A number of the villages in this region have artistic and historic as well as scenic attractions. Atop a hill and on the way to the coast is Pals, a 12th-century walled town that has won awards for its careful restoration. Tossa de Mar, another medieval settlement, is known for the dramatic defence towers guarding the old centre of town. Residencial Begur is just on the edge of the town of Begur itself. Due to the nature of Begur’s winding streets and its situation on a hill, many local Catalans have chosen to set up residence in the large forested area of Residencial Begur. This area is good for families as many of the properties here have large fenced off grounds with pool and barbecue areas and it is still only approximately 3km from the beautiful beaches and coves the Begur area has to offer. Residencial Begur has its own swimming pool complex and tennis courts, the use of which are available for a small fee. Slightly further south of Residencial Begur is CASA DE CAMPO, which is set in the beautiful Catalan countryside about 2km inland from Tamariu, and is an old established area where a few villas have been discreetly built amongst the pinewood hills. Ideal for those seeking complete peace and quiet in a countryside setting yet within easy striking distance of the lovely coast which is 10 minutes away by car or a 30 minute walk down a woodand path.

It is very easy to get to from the town, simply by taking the ring road and going down to the bay. It can also be reached from Sa Tuna or Aiguafreda along the road that connects the various towns. Sa Riera, whose name comes from the stream that divides the beach into two halves, retains the former fishermens` houses and has a boat club offering various leisure activities.

This pretty bay with its colourwashed fishermens` cottages dotted along the shore has a real character of its own and there is a twice weekly market in the square in the high season. A small choice of good restaurants along the beach front, a supermarket and various shops selling local artifacts completes the picture. The beach itself is deep and sandy with a shallow entrance to the water. There are welcome showers at the edge of the beach. Every summer the beach becomes a choice setting for the traditional habanera recital held there. Having been awarded a blue flag each year since 1995, it is very well equipped and has a boat club offering varied sports activities related with the sea. The bay can be reached from the Begur road or, on foot, along the coastal path from Platja del Racó, the nudist beach. Sa Riera can also be reached from the south along a road which, hugging the coastline, runs between Aiguafreda and Sa Tuna.
