38/43.- Cadaques, Sa Sabolla

We are now by Sa Conca, a nudist beach (at our left). If you keep walking you'll get to another beach: Sa Sabolla.

Cadaques has been like an island for a long time. Big mountains (Es Peni and Es Bufadors) isolated the town by land for several years. There was only a small road that led to Roses and Figueres. The trip used to last several hours. The current road to Figueres was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Currently it only takes 30/40 minutes to get to Figueres. Before the construction of this road the easiest way to get to Cadaques was by sea. It was normal that many locals had never been in Figueres (40 Km away) or Barcelona (180 km away), but had been several times in America, especially in Cuba.
