Window to the sea

We're peering through the Arch of Portitxol, a striking rock formation near the historic fishing center of L'Escala, Spain. Formed by wind and wave erosion, it's a view humans have appreciated since antiquity. Roman ruins not far from here indicate that people were catching and preserving fish from the local Mediterranean waters as long ago as 575 BCE. Today, the arch is a favorite among photographers and travelers exploring the glitzy Costa Brava.
