- 1In Cadaqués, the GR-92 coastal path from the Riba Pianc to Port Lligat past the Casa-Museu Salvador Dalí, the Parc Natural de Cap de Creus slate trails to the Faro and the Cala Jugadora cove, and the Plaça Frederic Rahola village living room around the 19:00 ronda are within reach of every hotel on this list, good for morning and evening outings.
- 2Cadaqués is the 2,800-resident pueblo blanco at the dead end of the GI-614 mountain road on the Cap de Creus headland, with a whitewashed old quarter piling up to the baroque Església de Santa Maria, Salvador Dalí's family home in Port Lligat, Spain's first marine-terrestrial Parc Natural, the easternmost mainland lighthouse Faro de Cap de Creus, and a tramuntana wind that shapes both the landscape and the local rhythm, pets are a normal part of street life, café terraces, and local shops.
- 3Hotels selected for this guide are specifically in the harbour-front Riba between Es Baluard and Plaça Frederic Rahola, the slate alleys of the Carrer des Call old quarter up to Santa Maria, and the Port Lligat cove 1.5 km north around the Dalí house, where pet infrastructure is densest and local restaurants routinely provide water bowls and terrace access.
Best season: spring & autumn
