| But, why do we
say it is a paradise? Some would say, easy because that's
what it is, and they will give you the reasons:
. because it is the biggest residential marina in the
world, and it has 30 Km. of navigable canals. What does
that mean? It means that this allows the majority of
people the luxury of having their own boat moored outside
the vouse. No wonder Empuriabrava is known as the modern
Venice, Amsterdam in Summer and the Fort Lauderdale
of Europe...
. because it offers its visitors a variety of services
second to none: gastronomy from anywhere in the world,
all kinds of sporting activities, from sea sports to
parachuting, not forgeting horse riding, go karting
and cycle riding with 6 golf courses within 30 minuts
reach. All of these added to the peace and quiet one
can enjoy its subsequent relaxation on one side and
the continuos fiestas and night life on the other.
. because it is surrounded by the beautiful Wetlands
of Empordà (Aiguamolls de l'Empordà),
which have access on foot or by bicycle.
. because of its historical nucleus so popular and admired
as is Castelló d'Empúries, with its Gothic
Cathedral wich has to be visited as well as the rest
of the town, the Jail, Santa Clara Convent, etc...
. because so near ther are essential cultural visits,
like the well known Dali Route (with the Theatre Museum
in Figueres, the house in Port-Lligat and the castle
in Pubol), the Monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes, the
Roses citadel and the of Greek and Roman ruins of Empuries
or the Iberian remains of Ullastret.
. because from Empuriabrava you can organize lots of
different excursions, for instance,, the Jewish Old
Center of Girona, Cadaqués, The Banyoles Lake,
Roses' Water Park, Besalú, or simply the protected
nature areas of Cap de Creus or l'Albera.
Do you still need more reasons to come to Empuriabrava
and stay here during your holidays?!?
