Visit Pals tourist office

The Pals tourist office is at carrer de la Creu, 7, in the Ca la Pruna building. It is the office of Visit Pals, the municipal tourism website, and answers on 972 63 73 80 and at [email protected]. Visit Pals states that it has held the Tourist Quality Commitment mark since 2004. As well as this office, the municipality has an information point at the Basses d'en Coll.

Opening hours

Visit Pals does not publish the hours in the text of its offices page: it shows them on the entry for each one, and they change with the season. The safest thing is to call first, especially in winter and on weekdays.

What they can sort out for you

It is the place to ask for the map of the village, the Masos de Pals and the beach, which Visit Pals also lets you download as a PDF. The walk round the Gothic old town and the Torre de les Hores starts from here, and in a few minutes you can climb to the Josep Pla viewpoint.

It also gives information on the guided visits organised or promoted by Visit Pals, such as the El Xiulet de Pals routes: the Gothic Pals one, of about 45 minutes, the medieval villages one and the rice route by little train to the Molí de Pals, which leaves from the coach car park on carrer de l'Abeurador. The little train is booked with its company, on 628 597 972 or on its website.

In autumn and winter, ask about the flooded rice fields and the Marxa dels Arrossars, a popular walk among the fields that in 2026 is on 22 November.

The Basses d'en Coll point

Visit Pals lists a second information point at the Basses d'en Coll, with the same contact number. It does not publish its hours in text. The Costa Brava tourism website also places a Pals information point on passeig Aniceta Figueres i Soler, next to the Platja Gran, with the telephone 972 667 857; in beach season it is the most practical if you are staying on the coast.

Getting there and parking

The old town is pedestrian. Leave the car in the car parks at the foot of the old town and walk up. From 1 June to 30 September the municipal blue zone applies, from 9:00 to 20:00. Without a car, the Sarfa bus comes from Barcelona and Girona, although with few services.

After the office

To eat inside the old town there is El Pedró, open as a bar since 1973, and at the entrance to the village, Restaurant La Vila. If you are looking for a visit with a tasting, Mas Geli is on the outskirts, always by reservation.
