Calella

Calella packs a lot into its petite size, with a delightful town centre and a series of pristine beaches, as well as historic architecture, first-rate cultural institutions, and reams of natural beauty. Located on the northern coast of Catalonia, this resort town sits some 58 km northeast of Barcelona, excellent for a day trip for those staying in the regional capital.

Perched on the popular Costa del Maresme, Calella has retained much of its authenticity. One of the great joys of visiting Calella is enjoying the local food and culture. Savouring a long Sunday lunch of fideua (a rice dish made with freshly caught seafood) with Spanish wines is truly a quintessential Calella experience.
