Roses: A Coastal Town with Greek Roots and Stunning Sunsets
Nestled on the northeastern coast of Spain, where the Pyrenees kiss the Mediterranean Sea, lies the charming town of Roses — a hidden gem of the Costa Brava. With its rich history, breathtaking views, and laid-back vibe, Roses is a destination that speaks to the heart. Whether you’re chasing history, nature, or simply a peaceful escape, Roses welcomes you with open arms.

A Touch of Greece in Spain
Did you know that Roses traces its origins back to the ancient Greeks? This scenic coastal town was founded in the 8th century BC by Greek settlers from Rhodes, and its name still echoes those roots. You can feel that timeless charm walking through the old town or exploring the Ciutadella de Roses, a magnificent fortress that blends centuries of Greek, Roman, and Spanish influence.
History lovers will find endless fascination here — from archaeological sites to museums that paint a vivid picture of Roses’ multicultural past. It’s not just a holiday; it’s a journey through time.
Mediterranean Magic and Golden Sunsets
If nature is what moves you, Roses will steal your heart. The town is surrounded by two spectacular natural parks — Cap de Creus and Aiguamolls de l’Empordà — perfect for hiking, bird watching, or just soaking up the serenity of the coast.

But what truly sets Roses apart are its unforgettable sunsets. As evening falls, the skies light up with hues of orange, lavender, and pink — mirrored perfectly in the calm Mediterranean waters. Whether you’re enjoying a glass of local wine on a seaside terrace or strolling along the beach, the sunsets here are nothing short of soul-stirring.
Beaches, Cuisine, and Culture
Roses offers the perfect blend of leisure and culture. Its beaches are among the most beautiful in Catalonia, with soft golden sand and crystal-clear waters. The local cuisine — with fresh seafood, Catalan specialties, and traditional Spanish tapas — is an experience in itself.
Don’t miss the local markets and festivals that bring the town to life throughout the year. Roses is a place where the past and present coexist in harmony, where every corner tells a story and every meal feels like home.
