Over which restaurant in Spain does the sun come up first?
|
|
So distorted the question first appears, so simply is the answer: | the sun shines first on the restaurant Cap de Creus on the Cap de Creus with the address, which can be easily remembered: | |
| Restaurant
Cap de Creus Cap de Creus s/n (= sin numero, without number) Cadaqués |
|||
![]() |
Why? Because the Cap de Creus is the most eastern point of the Iberian Peninsula. |
|
| The Cap de Creus displays its wondrous stone formations just a few meters from the restaurant. |
|
Many visitors of the Cap have admired these formations again and again; and yet few can recall a restaurant. |
This is not since the owner, Chris Little has located his restaurant in the former administration building for the lighthouse. The lighthouse is now automatic, and is controlled by Barcelona. The building has retained its low-key façade.

No advertisement should disturb the majesty of the Cap. Only a small hand-painted sign indicates that a bar-restaurant is at the top of the path. The rock formations were created by wind and water. This is a wind point. | ![]() |
However, the terrace on the back
of the building is well protected from the wind,![]() |
an ideal place to have a drink or
the aperitif before an excellent meal.
