Empuriabrava Tourist Information - Costa Brava

 Empuriabrava Holiday Rentals

 Empuriabrava calls itself "the largest Marina in the world ", an area with more water ways than even Venice. Whether this is a fact remains to be proved. Empuriabrava, however, has an immense number of canals, where boat owners have their own private moorings in front of their houses. Empuriabrava was built on a swamp in 1968 and today covers an area of over 503 hectares, about 10% of the total area are canals or port, and this probably counts primarily for the popularity of the resort. From the tiniest boat to the biggest cruising yacht, everything can be found here. In addition, in the course of the years many houses and apartments were built, which do not lie directly by canals. Many have direct view of the sea and the bay of Empuriabrava with its big sandy beach.

                 

Although more and more people are living in Empuriabrava all year round it is still very much a holiday destination. Visitors will enjoy the beautiful beach, the many shops, restaurants, bars and cafes, take tours of the canals or be adventurous and go scuba or sky diving. In fact, a good indication that you are nearing Empuriabrava is when you can see parachutes falling like confetti from the sky! The town itself is situated in a rectangle of land bordered by the rivers Salins to the north and the Muga to the south. The western boundary is the Figures/Roses road whilst the box is completed by the Mediterranean Sea which gives Empuriabrava a kilometre of beach front although there are some six kilometres of beach either side of the rivers.
