San Marti and Punta Romana
The cafes of San Marti and the Sunday market at L'Escala are popular and great fun.
This area is renown for its rich archaeologic heritage from Greek and Roman times
Those breakwaters that protect the two beaches in the aerial photo are not a modern construction, funded by an EU grant, they were built by the ancient Greeks over 2000 years ago!
Build a sandcastle on the beach and who knows what you may find beneath the sand, because the whole area is one large archaelogical treasure trove. The small communities and ruins all have their roots in antiquity.
Birds of Aiguamolls de L'Emporda - Bird santuary
The area around Ampurias is rural and is the location for one of the best wetland areas in northeast coastal Spain. The Birds of Aiguamolls de L'Emporda santuary is within this Natural Park and Ramsar Site.
These coastal marshlands have been formed around the mouths of the Muga and Fluvia rivers and include freshwater pools, brackish lagoons and saltmarshes, sandy coastal areas, wet grassland, cultivated land and some woodland. This range of habitats attracts a wide range of birds and around 300 species have been recorded.
Birdwatches (or twitchers and birders), walkers and those with an interest in natural beauty will all enjoy a visit.
Getting here
Ampuras is about 40 minutes drive from the French boarder. A car is the most useful means of exploring and making the most of the area, with its large tracts of rural landscape.

The nearest airports are Girona (30 minutes drive) and Barcelona (1 hours drive). Alternatively you can fly into French airports such as Perpignan (1 hours drive) and Carcasson (2 hours drive).
