Planning a trip with gf to Barcelona in early September and we wanted to spend a couple days in Costa Brava. Struggling to pick a town but I’m leaning toward Calella de Parafrugell Or Cadaques .We won’t have a car, is it possible/easy enough to travel by train or bus? Additionally, we are more than open to hearing other suggestions for towns if you feel there are better options.

Struggling between the 2 because:

Calella: seems to have better beaches, but small town. Fewer historical sites. Are restaurants/bars good and open in September? I know there wouldn’t be nightlife which we don’t care about but just curious if this would really be a good fit.

Cadaques: much more history, slightly bigger town. So I assume restaurants/bars are better. Farther and harder without a car. Beaches not as pretty?

We won’t have a car, is it possible/easy enough to travel by train or bus? Also, I’m seeing that this town is beautiful with great beaches/coves, but is there enough to do in 2 days or would you suggest another town? Are there enough restaurants and will they be open in September? Any tips/insight that you have would be appreciated

Hi! My girlfriend and I are booking a one week vacation to Spain. We will fly into Barcelona, spend 5 nights there, breaking it up with 2 nights in Costa Brava in the middle. We are struggling to pick which town is the best for our purposes. We want to be able to go to beautiful beaches with a scenic town, great restaurants, etc. we won’t have a car either, plan to take a bus from Barcelona to wherever we choose (and then taxi if we have to). Please help us choose a place!!! Thank you for your tips!
