Empuriabrava is one of the largest residential marinas in Europe and the world. Perhaps saying this it is difficult to get an idea of what this 'Venice of the Costa Brava' is really like. But if you mention its 25 kilometers of canals and more than five thousand moorings, it is not so difficult to understand the reason for its nickname. In fact, its image has nothing to do with that of other tourist areas on the Spanish coast.Here, instead of skyscrapers, whitewashed residences stand overlooking canals that are their true arteries of communication. The traffic noise is that of the movement of boats of different sizes. And the crowds of visitors when the high season arrives hardly have any room. Thus, Empuriabrava is one of those rare places on the overexploited Mediterranean coast where you can still breathe with some peace of mind.
