If we have a preference for spectacular coves, some of the best beaches in Spain are concentrated in Girona. In the north of the Costa Brava, specifically in Cap de Creus, is Cala Culip, with a spectacular sea and geology. In our route through the same area we cannot miss Cala Jugadora, Cala Culleró and Cala Prona.
