Cadaqués is a town in the Alt Empordà Comarques of Catalonia|comarca, in Girona (province)|Girona province, Catalonia, Spain. It is on a Headlands and bays|bay near the Cap de Creus peninsula, on the Costa Brava of the Mediterranean Sea. It is only a 2 1/2 hour drive from Barcelona, therefore it is very accessible and not only attracts tourists, but people who want a second house to have on the weekends and summers. In 2002 it had a population of 2612 people.
Artist Salvador Dalí often visited here in his childhood, and later kept a home in Port Lligat, a small bay next to the village. Other notable artists, including Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Marcel Duchamp, Antoni Pitxot, Henri-François Rey, Melina Mercouri and Maurice Boitel also spent time here.
Cadaqués is mentioned in the story Tramontana by Gabriel García Márquez.
In a time it remained undisturbed, its interesting submarine flora was studied during several years by phycologist Françoise Ardré.
Long a sleepy fishing village, Cadaqués is now a tourism destination. Although it has about 2,000 permanent residents, sometimes up to 10 times that number of visitors stay there.
