Costa del Garraf
The Costa del Garraf is the "home coast" of Barcelona and stretches along the Spanish Mediterranean from the Costa del Maresme in the north to Vilanova i la Geltrú in the south. The coast is characterized by both beaches and rocks. Garraf is Catalunya’s second smallest comarca but packs a lot into its 184 square kilometers. Situated on the Costa Garraf, just southwest of Barcelona, the region’s beautiful coastline includes 25 kilometers of large sandy beaches and tiny, secluded bays almost hidden beneath rocky cliffs. The Parc Natural de Garraf in the east covers an area of almost 13,000 hectares. The low limestone peaks of the Garraf massif create a wild landscape and habitat for a number of rare and protected species like the European fan palm and Mediterranean tortoise.
