    Gourmet eats and Spanish treats

    When it comes to first-class food, the people of Costa Brava know how to do it right. Lucky for you, a great number of Llafranc restaurants serve authentic Spanish food, which mixes fresh seafood with meat and vegetables from the ripe mountainous fields inland. The restaurants are also known for their spectacular ambience, whether that’s in the charming courtyard at Chez Tomas or overlooking the Mediterranean Sea at La Llagosta.

    And nearby...

    For an easy day trip out of the area, just a short stint away from Llafranc is the town of Calella de Palafrugell, or simply Calella. This waterfront town is similar to Llafranc in beauty and size but has a more lively vibe. The two areas are connected by a scenic coastal walk that’s dotted with coves, whose restaurants and award-winning Blue Flag beaches beg for a pit stop. Once you’ve arrived, you’ll find gorgeous spots like the Botanical Gardens of Cap Roig located along a cliff and overlooking the Mediterranean.

    But that’s not to say Llafranc is inaccessible if your name isn’t Hemingway.
