Travel through Begure keeping the ocean to your left hand side then go down to the coast road. The road winds down to tiny little deserted coves, and there the road becomes very narrow in places, great care is need along this stretch of road, but the views along the way are spectacular. You can stop off at the tiny inletts if you can find a place to park!

Aerials of Radio Liberty (1959-2006)

The aerials of Radio Liberty are not there anymore. I've kind of mixed feelings about it, one part of me still thinks it's a pity as it was a part of history. I only hope that the landscape were the aerials stood for so many years, will become a protected area. There is already too much concrete in our coasts.

Below, the original tip:

A surprising landscape: a long beach dominated by serried ranks of huge red aerial towers!!! These are really impressive. Why they are here???

Those aerials once broadcast “Radio Liberty”: during the cold war times, the message from America against communism in the Eastern bloc departed from here. They were so huge as the message should reach the distant Russia… amazing.

To reach the beach, follow the directions to “Platja de Pals”. There is a residential area, with a small seafront promenade. At the end of the street, you can have a nice view of the aerials (btw, the area just in front of the arterials is a naturist beach).

Medieval town of Pals

 It's quite interesting that the medieval town of Pals, was once a seaport in a rice-growing area. Now it's located inland due to silting. You'll find a very well-preserved medieval village (even a...

Finding a small quite town

 Pals situated near the sea cost, but you'll not find beach there. Autentic architecture, stone streets and beautiful arches are main decorations of this small town.
