Begur travel guide & transfers
Hilltop castle village above the Costa Brava's most beautiful coves
About Begur
Begur is a hilltop village crowned by a ruined castle, with colonial 'Indianos' mansions built by emigrants who made fortunes in Cuba. Below it, a string of crystal-clear coves — Sa Tuna, Aiguablava, Fornells and Sa Riera — make it one of the most sought-after addresses on the Costa Brava. It is about 130 km from Barcelona Airport and 50 km from Girona Airport, with narrow roads that make a professional driver a real advantage.
