TOURS OF THE CAP DE CREUS
In
March of 1998, the Cap de Creus was proclaimed the first maritime-terrestrial
Natural Park by the Catalan government. Today, 14,000 ha. of this land
are protected and have become part of Catalonia's cultural and natural
heritage. It is a unique site of the Iberic Peninsula.
