El Racó del Mar is a restaurant-bar on the seafront in Empuriabrava, on the Costa Brava. Its cooking centres on products from the Mediterranean, with a menu focused on fish, paellas and seafood. The setting brings together a coastal dining experience and a practical, adaptable layout for different times of year.

The venue occupies a beachfront position at Gran Reserva, with views towards the Bay of Roses and its beaches. The interior is fully air-conditioned and divided into two areas: a restaurant-bar space and an enclosed outdoor terrace. The enclosed terrace is equipped for use throughout the year, allowing the venue to retain its seaside outlook while providing shelter when conditions are less suitable for open-air dining.

A covered terrace provides another option between indoor and outdoor seating. Its configuration can be adapted for summer or winter, keeping the views across the bay in focus. Two further outdoor terraces offer a more open setting where the sea breeze and coastal surroundings form part of the meal. Together, the different areas give El Racó del Mar a flexible character, from a climate-controlled restaurant setting to a more exposed terrace experience.

The restaurant suits diners looking for Mediterranean seafood in a seafront location, particularly those interested in fish, paellas and shellfish-style dishes. It also works for occasions when the setting matters as much as the meal, with several seating environments available within the same venue. The combination of a restaurant-bar format, coastal views and year-round terrace provision makes it suitable for casual seaside dining across changing weather conditions.

El Racó del Mar is located at Passeig Marítim, Edif 2 Local 26, within the Gran Reserva area of Empuriabrava. Reservations can be arranged by telephone or through WhatsApp, with the venue specifying text messages for WhatsApp contact. The location and choice of terraces make the restaurant a natural stop for a meal beside the Bay of Roses, while the Mediterranean-focused menu keeps the emphasis on seafood and rice-based cooking.
