Where We Are
Just 5 minutes from the town of Pals and 5 minutes from the beach, we are in a small neighborhood away from the noise of the road and a stone’s throw from the forest.

Environment
Can Costals is located in the municipality of Pals, in the Baix Empordà region and on the magnificent Costa Brava (a short distance from the Montgrí Natural Park, the Medes Islands and the Baix Ter). Here you will find from routes through the forest, visits to natural parks, routes through medieval towns, endless beaches and hidden coves, coastal paths and restaurants with typical dishes from the area.
Pals, surrounded by nature, presents us with an idyllic landscape full of contrasts, light and color. Any time of the year is perfect for its sunsets, the flowered fields, the colors of the sea…
Beaches with dunes, rice fields, a natural park and a town with a lot of medieval charm
The town of Pals is located between the Gavarres and the Montgrí mountains, surrounded by rice fields and its beaches with dunes touching the sea.
Near the beach, you can visit Les Basses d’en Coll, Nature Reserve and take routes through the area, both on foot and by bicycle.
Visiting the old town is like a trip to the medieval past, the walled enclosure, its narrow cobbled streets, the arches and old houses, the Gothic Church and the Romanesque tower are a must.
Among the gastronomy of Pals, the star dishes cooked with rice cannot be missing. Although you will also find dishes cooked with local products and a very wide gastronomic offer for all tastes.
Can Costals is within the Xarxa Natura 2000.
Natura 2000 is the European set of natural spaces that aims to make the protection of species and natural and semi-natural habitats compatible with the human activity that takes place. It is the most important European nature conservation initiative. The protection of the natural heritage is guaranteed.
Currently, in Catalonia there are 115 spaces that have been declared as places of community importance (SCI) and 73 areas of special protection for birds (ZEPA).
Pals is attached to the Cittaslow movement.
Being a slow municipality goes beyond being a quiet municipality. It implies having internalized a series of intangible features based on a philosophy that permeates all corners of the territory; It implies a peculiar way of seeing and living life in favor of the residents of Pals who fight to preserve, day after day, the landscape, the most deeply rooted customs and traditions, the native gastronomy, the local products… without barring the way to progress or new technologies.
