You arrive midmorning at the edge of Cap de Creus and the sea opens like a slow exhale — wind-sculpted granite cliffs and salt-bright air that pushes your attention seaward. The van leaves Girona behind and the road climbs into a coastline that feels older than its towns, where Cadaqués’ white houses lean toward the bay and the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes crowns a ridge like a deliberate gesture.
