No Lines, No Language Barriers
Begur is one of the Costa Brava’s crown jewels — a fortified hilltop village at 200 metres, with a ruined castle and hidden coves reached only by steep, rocky descents. The combination of hilltop heat, exposed terrain, and rocky paths to the beaches creates specific health risks: heat exhaustion after the castle climb, ankle injuries on the descent to Platja de Sa Riera or Cala Aiguafreda, and jellyfish in season. In a premium destination where convenience matters, TravelDoctores gets you an English-speaking GP in 15 minutes, without leaving your accommodation.

Who We Are – TravelDoctores
TravelDoctores is a telemedicine platform created by Dr. Pablo J. Rossi, a licensed internist with over 10 years of experience in emergency and family medicine across Europe and Latin America.
Our service was built for international travellers who need fast, convenient, English-language medical care — from their villa or hotel, without queuing or paperwork. Begur’s relative isolation from large medical centres makes telemedicine especially valuable here.
We also cover the rest of the Costa Brava and all of Spain:

Health Tips for Tourists in Begur
Begur’s beauty is inseparable from its terrain challenges. A few practical tips before you head out.
Visit the castle early or late
The Castell de Begur walk is beautiful but exposed. The hilltop village offers almost no shade. Visit before 11am or after 5pm in summer to avoid peak heat. Bring at least 1 litre of water and wear a hat.
Proper footwear is essential
The paths down to Sa Riera, Aiguafreda, and Aiguablava are steep, rocky, and can be loose. Wear proper hiking sandals or trainers — not flip-flops. The descent is manageable with the right footwear; without it, it’s an ankle injury waiting to happen.
Jellyfish in summer coves
Jellyfish (medusas) are present in Begur’s coves from June to September. Rinse stings with seawater, apply cold. Consult us online if reactions worsen, spread, or breathing difficulty develops.
Know your nearest facilities
Begur has a pharmacy in the village. The nearest primary care centre is CAP Palafrugell (9 km). Hospital de Palamós (25 km) handles emergencies. For anything non-life-threatening, our online consultation saves you the drive.
No sea breeze at the village
The hilltop position of Begur village means there’s significantly less breeze than at the beaches below. UV exposure is intense. Apply SPF 50+ and reapply hourly if you’re spending time in the village or on the castle trails.
