We can over via the D900 from France which quite a while because the Spanish separatists had blockaded the motorway it was a long slow drive. We stopped first in Roses at the autocamp €12 a night. We walked into the town along the sea front and watched the parakeets in the trees. The next day we went to the Ciutadella de Roses the 16th C Renaissance citadel with ruins of an ancient Greek settlement & a medieval monastery inside.
We also visited Empuriabrava is a community in the municipality of Castelló d'Empúries, in the Alt Empordà. It is located in the Gulf of Roses, surrounded by the Natural Park of the Aiguamolls de l'Empordà, and is the largest residential marina in Europe, with some 24 km of navigable waterways. We walked from the autocamp stop down to the sea and had dinner before walking back.
