Cap de Creus is mainland Spain’s most easterly point and the starting place for Marnaton’s beautiful Cadaqués swim. Heading south from the Cap, before you reach the picturesque natural harbour of Cadaqués, you pass Port Lligat, where Salvador Dalí lived for 50 years. Making the most of his easterly location, Dalí installed a mirror in his bedroom angled so that the rising sun would be reflected into his bed, so he could claim to be the first person in Spain to see the rising sun each day.
The swim follows the rugged Costa Brava coastline. It’s the type of swim that once you’ve raced you will want to repeat more slowly in order to savour the details: the hundreds of fish darting below you, their scales flashing in the sunlight; the rocks with their sea anemones and strange looking plants; the jumbled, twisted rocks that make up the coastline.
