After marrying Gala, Dalí bought a fisherman’s hut on the bay of Portlligat just north of Cadaqués, an area where he had spent much time during his youth. Over the next 30 years he bought up the surrounding houses overlooking the Platja Llaner and left that indelible Dalí stamp on each of them. A walk between the whitewashed buildings of Dalí’s own little world is accomplished via a series of stairways and entails a visit to his workshop spaces and the private family room, a look at the keyhole-shaped pool (no swimming allowed) and, most importantly, the beautiful surrounding landscape that found its way onto countless Dalí canvases. Though not difficult to access, you need to call, e-mail or fax ahead of time to arrange a visit. Small groups are led by a guide through the complex at set times.
