What the transfer covers
Begur is a hill town in the Baix Empordà. The ruins of its castle stand on a conical hilltop about 260 meters above sea level, first documented in 1019, and the Generalitat de Catalunya's Costa Brava guide describes the town growing at the foot of that castle. Its streets keep early 20th-century houses built by local people who made their fortune in the Americas, with large balconies, garden courtyards and mural paintings. Below the town, the shore breaks into the coves the guide names one by one: Sa Riera, Aiguafreda, Sa Tuna, Fornells and Aiguablava. The same guide counts the coastline from Begur to Palamós among the most rugged on the Costa Brava.
The estimate for this transfer is 131 km, about 1 h 45 min by road without traffic. It leaves Barcelona on the C-31 and C-33, runs north on the AP-7, then turns off on the C-35 and the C-65 toward the coast. A transfer can end in the old town by the castle hill or down at a cove, so the address you give decides the last part of the drive.
Start of the journey
Pickup in Barcelona
Collection is at the address you send in Barcelona: a hotel, a rented apartment, a home or an office. Give the street address and the time you would like to be collected.
For journeys that start at the terminal, see the Barcelona Airport to Costa Brava transfer and send your flight number with the request.
End of the journey
Arrival in Begur
Drop-off is at the address you give in Begur. That can be the old town around the castle hill, or a hotel or house by one of the coves: Aiguablava, which the Costa Brava tourism board describes as the most southern beach of Begur, or Sa Riera, Aiguafreda, Sa Tuna and Fornells. Send the street address, or the name of the hotel or villa, with your request.
Begur's Indiano houses are private homes. The Generalitat guide's walking route through the town notes that their interiors cannot be visited, while the murals, balustrades and gardens can be seen well from the street. Begur Town Council runs an interpretation centre on the Indianos, the more than 500 people from Begur who crossed the Atlantic during the 19th century, with an audio guide route through the houses (Ajuntament de Begur).

Questions about the Barcelona to Begur transfer
How many kilometers is Begur from Barcelona, and which roads lead there?
Counting from Plaça de Catalunya, the town of Begur is about 131 km away, about 1 h 45 min at the wheel with no traffic (estimate: OpenStreetMap road routing, no traffic, checked September 30, 2026). The estimate leaves the city on the C-31 and C-33, runs north on the AP-7 and turns toward the coast on the C-35 and the C-65. An address down at one of the coves adds the last stretch below the town.
Can the transfer end at a hotel by Aiguablava or Sa Tuna?
Give the hotel's name or address in your request and the drop-off is quoted for that door. The coves the Generalitat's Costa Brava guide names around Begur are Sa Riera, Aiguafreda, Sa Tuna, Fornells and Aiguablava, and costabrava.org describes Aiguablava as the most southern of them.
Can we go inside the Indiano houses?
They are private residences, so their interiors are closed, but the Generalitat guide says the murals, balustrades and gardens can be seen well from outside. Begur Town Council's interpretation centre on the Indianos offers an audio guide route through the houses.
What is left of the castle on the hill above Begur?
Ruins on a conical hilltop about 260 meters high. The castle is first documented in 1019 and was blown up in 1810 during the Peninsular War; a round tower about 5 meters tall and stretches of wall remain (Viquipèdia). The Generalitat de Catalunya's Costa Brava guide describes the town growing at the foot of the castle, so the old streets start right below it.
