Are formed by two main islands, five islets and several minor islets. Geologically the Mediterranean islands are a continuation of the Montgrí massíf. The archipelago is, in fact, one of the most important areas of natural interest in the Mediterranean and is a large reserve of marine fauna and flora. The only construction in the archipelago is on the main island, the Meda Gran, and is the Meda lighthouse, which is uninhabited. There are vestiges that seem to think that they have served as a necropolis.
The Illes Medes is a small and craggy group of seven islets in the Costa Brava area of the northwestern Mediterranean Sea. Administratively, the Medes Archipelago belongs to the Baix Empordà comarca, Catalonia, Spain. The islands are protected as a nature reserve; scubadiving is popular but is thus regulated there and requires permission.

On the cliffs of Cap de la Barra, at an altitude of approximately 85 m, there is a viewpoint with a beautiful view of the Medes Islands, with views of Meda Gran and Medallot, as well as the El Molinet rock.

is an irrigation canal that captures the waters of the Rec del Molí and the Daró river, runs through the plain of the lower Ter and Daró and flows into the stretch of the Daró Vell already entered the municipal area of Fontanilles. From this point the waters form a network of canals that converge in the rec del Molí de Pals. There are two historical documents that highlight the great importance of the rec de Gualta. In the Histoire militaire de Louis Le Grand all the battles that took place under the reign of King Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, are narrated. There is the story of the Battle of Verges, a confrontation that took place between the French army, between Verges and Torroella de Montgrí, on the left bank of the Ter and the Spanish army positioned on the right of the Ter between Verges and Gualta. Here a very deep canal is mentioned that is certainly the rec de Gualta and this suggests that the rec del molí already existed in the 17th century. The bridge crosses the irrigation canal in a place where birds can be observed.
