Spain's 56 Most Breathtaking Beachside Towns Worth A Visit

46. Llançà, Catalonia: A Painter’s Playground

Perched on the northeastern edge of Catalonia, near the French border, Llançà is a painter’s dream—where blue waters meet jagged rocks and green hills. The Cap de Creus Natural Park is just around the bend, making this town ideal for artists, hikers, and sea lovers. Its small coves—like Platja del Port or La Farella—are intimate and clean, with turquoise water lapping at pebbled shores. The town hosts a surprisingly good culinary scene, from rustic Catalan grills to modern tasting menus. Less polished than Cadaqués, but every bit as inspiring.
