A town with a Mediterranean essence and a strong tourist and maritime tradition. It is located in an environment of unparalleled natural and scenic richness in the north of the Costa Brava.
The wonderful natural, geographical and climatic conditions of Roses and its bay have favoured human settlements from prehistory to the present day, including Greek colonization, Roman settlements and the medieval population, which have left an extraordinary archaeological wealth in their wake.
As a natural port, Roses has an important fishing fleet that supplies the town with fresh fish and seafood every day. Both the departure and arrival of the boats is quite a spectacle.
The gastronomy of Roses, straddling tradition and creativity, is based eminently on fresh fish. From the traditional dish such as fish stew to the most brilliant invention of the brilliant Ferran Adrià.
