Blanes

Blanes has served as a fishing port on Catalonia’s Mediterranean coast since the Middle Ages. Set on the Costa Brava, it curves around a broad bay beside Sa Palomera, the prominent rocky outcrop traditionally considered the coast’s southern starting point. The town still maintains an active harbour and fish auction, while its seafront combines urban beaches with long promenades. Above the coast, the Marimurtra Botanical Garden, founded by German industrialist Carl Faust in 1921, cultivates plant collections on cliffs overlooking the sea.
