Llafranc y Calella de Palafrugell, con sus calas protegidas y su paisaje rocoso, fueron escenario de numerosas incursiones piratas durante los siglos XVI y XVII. Los piratas aprovechaban los puertos naturales y las costas escarpadas para saquear los barcos y obtener las riquezas del mar. Las torres de vigilancia y las fortificaciones defensivas que aún se conservan en la costa son testimonio de este pasado marinero.

El legado de esta época se mantiene vivo a través de diversos monumentos, espacios patrimoniales y fiestas populares que nos transportan a otros tiempos. El Faro de Sant Sebastià, la capilla de Sant Sebastià y Les Voltes, los famosos soportales que se extienden junto al mar, son solo algunos de los lugares más emblemáticos. Este último, uno de los sitios más fotografiados, se ha convertido en un espacio de referencia donde los visitantes inmortalizan su paso con una imagen típicamente mediterránea: los arcos blancos y el mar de fondo. Otros puntos de interés incluyen la Calle del Mar, Cap Roig, los puertos marítimos, las iglesias locales y las casas blancas de pescadores. ¡Para conocer realmente la historia de estos pueblos, no hay mejor manera que perderse por sus estrechas calles!
