El Toc al Mar

This is a place that looks like exactly what it is: an authentic 'xiringuito' with plastic awnings and metal chairs, all housed in a former fishermen's hut. It's located on the beach of Aiguablava, which is very pretty but also very crowded in the summer, not just for the quality of its waters but also because people are drawn by what this restaurant has to offer: the aroma of oak burning in the oven that is used to grill fish caught that day by the boats of Begur, and to cook rice dishes made to traditional recipes. It's not cheap, and you have to be careful if you order the fish because the price is determined by weight; don't hesitate to ask them to weigh the piece you're interested in and then decide. If you arrive on your boat in the small port of Aiguablava, they'll bring you your paella there, so you can enjoy it without having to touch dry land.
