"Palamos is the ideal spot for an extended stay in Costa Brava. While the delightful towns like Calella and Tamariu offer a quick getaway, the main beach of Palamos is truly something special. With its cannons, boats, and lively nightlife, there's always something new to experience. Plus, the never-ending selection of eateries is sure to please."
