Roses, Empuriabrava marina
Empuriabrava is one of Europe's largest residential marinas, with over 23 kilometres of navigable canals weaving through a purpose-built waterside community right in the heart of Roses Bay on the Costa Brava. You're essentially pulling into a small city on the water — houses and apartments line every canal, and the town has its own shops, restaurants, and a fitness centre steps from the docks. The Aiguamolls de l'Empordà natural park sits right on the doorstep if you want to explore inland, and the ancient Greek ruins of Empúries are just a short drive away.
