l'Escala

l'Escala straddles the Mediterranean coastline on the southern shore of the Gulf of Roses in Catalonia, a position that has made the sea central to its working life and cuisine. The town is closely associated with salted anchovies, a local tradition celebrated at its annual Anchovy Festival. South of the centre, the archaeological site of Empúries preserves remains of a Greek settlement and a later Roman town, an exceptional pairing on the Catalan coast. Beaches and coves lead north towards the Montgrí Massif. View additional webcams nearby to better understand how l'Escala and the Gulf of Roses relate to their surroundings.
