Cadaques Blog Trip 2013<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cadaques where i left my worries behind the mountains. This is a guest post by Ash Clark, one of our bloggers on our recent “blog trip” to Cadaques and the Costa Brava.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeing as I arrived at night, it wasn\u2019t until the next day that I really got to appreciate the unique location that Cadaqu\u00e9s is set in. Invited on a four day blog trip by Charming Villas Catalonia<\/a> Cadaques was where we were spending our first two nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I woke the next morning, I got to see what it is that has made this sleepy fishing village grow into a popular summer holiday spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking from my villa through the cobbled lanes that wind around the town\u2019s whitewashed buildings and villas, I had no doubt in my mind that I was on the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n\n\n

Sailing on the Sant Isidre, Cadaques<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I was lucky enough to spend my first day sailing on a \u2018la\u00fct\u2019, a traditional Catalan fishing vessel. While I generally find most sailing experiences rather memorable, this particular one especially stood out as we sailed along the coastline of the Cap de Creus National Park. The unique perspective offered from the decks of our boat really allowed me to appreciate how spectacular the natural landscape is in this part of Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the coastline that Cadaqu\u00e9s sits on is without a doubt its main draw card, it was the mountains around the town that drew a lot of my attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vast majority of the hillsides around Cadaqu\u00e9s have terrace levels, made from stack-stone retaining walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It doesn\u2019t take one long to realize that most of these impressive walls are rather aged and that the incredible amounts of manual labor it would of taken to construct them was originally completed to serve a specific purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The blank terraced hillsides that dominate the area today haven\u2019t always been that way. I soon learned that Cadaqu\u00e9s was once a major producer of wine and olive oil. Unfortunately the wineries and olive farms that once thrived here were completely wiped out after an outbreak of a plant virus that destroyed the plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, wineries in the region are making a come back, offering some high quality drops of both red and white. Which, like almost every aspect of Catalan, have their own unique flare to them. Celler Martin Faixo<\/a> grow their wines in the hills of Cadaques\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Cadaques where i left my worries behind the mountains<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As the local saying goes, \u201cWhen you come to Cadaqu\u00e9s, you leave your worries behind the mountains.\u201d The natural scenery, food, art and culture on display in this fascinating town really do play true to those words for those who visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
