Discover Begur and enjoy the coves of Sa Riera, Illa Roja and Pals

• Past Excursions

DATE: June 13 at 8.30h

Guided tour in Begur and the remains of its castle, the best watchtower on the coast.

Begur is a beautiful hilltop village with spectacular views of the sea and the inland Empordà, a 14th century castle and impressive houses built by the famous “indianos”.

Walk (1 hour approx.) along a beautiful wooded path to the cove of Sa Riera.

After visiting the village and enjoying the views we will take a nice walk to Sa Riera along a beautiful wooded path.

Free time for lunch and enjoy the coves of Sa Riera and Illa Roja.

Between the cove of Sa Riera and Platja de Pals there is one of the most beautiful corners of the Costa Brava: the cove of Illa Roja, a beach of great beauty and with a large rock that presides over it and that gives it its name because of its reddish color.

Walk along the spectacular coastal path -30 minutes- from Sa Riera to the beach of Pals.

Let’s walk along the beautiful coastal path that connects the cove of Sa Riera with the beach of Pals.
