Gastronomy

In Begur, the gastronomy reflects the richness of an area open to the Mediterranean, from which all kinds of fish and seafood are extracted, complemented by an inland area that produces magnificent and varied fruits and vegetables, as well as top quality meats.

A good number of restaurants serving classic or modern cuisine, the endorsement of a great traditional and seafood cuisine that is still maintained in many homes, the rice dishes, the “sea and mountain” and the “platillos”, and the offer and quality of the seasonal products that the town and the region itself generate, have contributed to giving Empordà gastronomy international fame.

Both in the town of Begur itself and on its beaches and coves, we find a wide variety of restaurants that offer all types of cuisine.

On the other hand, among the many attractions that the town of Begur has, we can make special mention of its rocky coastline, and in this piece of rock of such beauty lives the rock fish, considered one of the tastiest, and of the highest quality, on the market. Therefore, the most traditional gastronomic element of Begur is, without a doubt, the rock fish, and it is based on the Gastronomic Campaign that is held every year in spring. During this time, the different restaurants that collaborate in the Campaign offer, on the menu of their establishments, the option of tasting a special menu made up of dishes made with a rock fish base, with a wide variety of recipes and a wide range of prices.
