Picnic packed? Mobile charged? Instagram ready? At Mas Ventós, a special spot in the Natural Park of the Cap de Creus, you'll need all three. There's a picnic area with some 13 wooden and stone tables, which are well separated, and a place for barbecues. The best part, however, is the excellent viewing-point over the Bay of Roses and Saverdera valley. It's so good that you might actually forget to eat your food. By the way, even though the old house (in whose grounds the picnic area sits) is in ruins, the toilets are helpfully still in use.
What you have here are seven viewing-points ('miradors') that will convince you that the Empordà is the finest place on Earth. Seven viewing-points that will leave you helplessly in love with the Costa Brava. Some are well-known, others more hidden, a few are in the heart of nature, while some are in the middle of a town. But they all have something in common: the chance to appreciate stunning views. Charge your mobile, get some comfy shoes on and have the hashtags ready.
