Boats moored on the beach in Cadaqués, in the Alt Empordà. And it is no wonder with the succession of storms that we have had in recent days, with the passage of Aline, Ciarán and Domingos.
However, this image in La Vanguardia's Readers' Photos captures a moment of calm, with lots of light and color, with the town as a backdrop with its houses and church with immaculately white walls.
Cadaqués is one of the most emblematic towns on the Costa Brava, with a past linked to the artist Salvador Dalí and lucky enough to be located next to Cap de Creus. The origin of the toponym is Cap de Quers or Cap d'Aques, which translates as "cape of rocks".
The landscape, with the boat moored in the foreground, transports us to the maritime atmosphere that prevails in this part of the Girona coast. In fact, Cadaqués' own fishing ordinances have been known since the 16th century.
Cadaqués is the easternmost town on the Iberian Peninsula. Its municipal term occupies most of the east coast of the Cap de Creus massif. Isolated by the mountains of Puig de Paní and Puig de Bufadors from the rest of the Empordà, it lives facing the sea.
