Lying in the south of the Bay of Roses, the township of L'Escala boasts a varied wealth of landscape and scenery: unspoilt coves and urban beaches; a modern resort and an old town; a medieval village and tiny fortified rural sites...

The magnificent landscape in the area has made L'Escala a popular scene for advertising, television, film and photographic productions. In response to the great demand, L'Escala Film Office provides audiovisual professionals with a range of services designed to make their work easier: centralising all necessarily formalities into one office and coordinating all the different local authority departments involved with film shoots; providing production companies with information about locations and contacts for logistic services; advertising searches for extras; and acting as an intermediary with private owners to ensure that filming runs smoothly.

Production companies interested in filming in L'Escala need a shoot permit, which can be obtained by contacting the Film Office at least seven days before filming is due to begin.
