Costa Brava! Around the Sea. Day 13. St. Martin Empúries - Cap de Creus

The night was pleasant. I slept in the pull.
After the delicious dinner at the restaurant L'Asclepius and some reading, I fall rendered in the arms of Morpheus (yeah yeah ... .. I prefer Morphea Morpheus ...)
Nighttime temperatures have been increasing since Tuesday. The night is capped and the wind does not make an appearance. A perfect night.
morning, the clouds have disappeared and the first few hours dedicated to breakfast quietly and let it dry some clothes. While breakfast walk from viewpoint of Sant Martí, some people watch and are interested in the Blue Sea ...



One of them, Max, comes over and gives free rein to their curiosity. We talked and I said to a photographer. Do you want to do some pictures? Sure! Answer. Meanwhile I breakfast, you think? Ok Ok!

Here are some photos I took Max:









The first two can be seen just behind mine the first of my destinations: The cap Norfeu. From Sant Martí direct route will cross the entire Gulf of Roses to this place. Will be more than 13 miles, a couple of hours ...

I say goodbye to Max and I get in the water later, about eleven and a half. No hurry. My final destination today will Culip Creek, past and Cap de Creus. Reach my final destination will not take more than five hours going muuuuuuuuuy quietly.

I put the waypoint in the GPS, led to the cove Montjoi and start navigating. Soon, I leave behind me a beautiful view of all the busy and ...



Ahead, just over ten miles ...



Behind even the distance, is drawn out of Begur ...



sailed quietly. The GPS tells me to easily maintain speeds above 7-8 km / h, 4 knots! :) In a little over an hour, I have at the other end of the gulf. The mole hiperconstruída of Roses ...



... and thus the surf zone that known. My home at sea. The natural park of Cap de Creus is the area that sailed over throughout the year.



back, clearly, the Medes. Something hidden sunshine, the cap of Begur ...



Nearly two hours late in reaching the creek near Montjoi. I press on toward the cap of its flagship Cavall Norfeu and Bernat ...



Here I enjoy the spectacular landscape that are next to Cavall Bernat. In these days I'll look to upload a video for this area that gives good note of her beauty. From here Jòncols Creek, where we slept the first night, there are a few minutes ...



I have very close and the village of Cadaqués and the light that precedes the bay, the lighthouse of Nans ...



The day is fantastic south of Cap de Creus. From the Bay of Cadaqués the view is complete ...



I decide navigate directly to the Cape. I can touch it with my hands ...



I arrive early and get close to Cap de Creus restaurant and give me another pleasure. Here you can taste a piece of fresh fish that you offer or sample any of the delicacies of Indian cuisine, specialty of the house. The chicken curry takes over my mind!! :)



Paso near the cave of L'Infern, brushed my Cap de Creus hands and begin to think for the passage of Sa clavegueres. Protected by the islets of S'Encalladora watch as the peace that has accompanied me all day have a hot dot to end the day. There is some mareton! Tramontana something that raises some ripples a couple of feet! Enter the cove Culip be fun, especially considering that practically have to get to the rock walls that enclose the bay to enter the cove. A pair of surfing and in! In the cove Culip can choose between this house ...



And this one ...



I'm in the latter. The first is in the hands of a huge jellyfish soup a little difficult the output to ground. In this leave the rest Blue Sea ...



I'm going next to the lighthouse for dinner. On the way, the camera begins to tell me that you run out of energy. Before giving me these gifts ...





half an hour the sky is covered and it starts to rain lightly. The chamber says it now does not work anymore. I walk down the road that leads to the cove. Laaaaaaaaaaargo is a walk of about four or five miles, full of beauty where we can find a myriad of rocks marked with Weird ways that nature has been chipping away over time. Many of these forms you will find in Dali's works reflected ...

At about half past five p.m. I am at the lighthouse. Tired and hungry. A beer and some olives precede the chicken curry that has clouded my mind! :) With the night over after a fantastic dinner, I decide to stay in one of the apartments in this restaurant. If! You can sleep here and wake up in the morning watching the sun first appears on the peninsula! A natural luxury!

A natural luxury itself. The start of a Pyrenees here are marked in red and white path that would lead us, if we sixty days of patience, to the other end: Cape HIGUER in Gipuzkoa, in the Cantabrian Sea. This road in its day was my first adventure. Today I will be here. But instead of walking on land, now I walk by the sea! Walking the sea! Pel Voltant Mar. .. Here

leave the map of your route ...



And here the slide ...



play tomorrow to reach my destination "almost" final, Llançà. Laura, a friend who I know personally, I urged him to complete the Costa Brava reaching Portbou. I will. But it will be accompanied by good friends and ...

A hug to everyone and see you tomorrow! :)
