The Costa Brava is located in the north-east of Spain in the region of Catalonia. The coast stretches from Blanes south of Girona to the French border and has several of Spain's most popular coastal resorts. Thanks to its location on the Mediterranean Sea, the Costa Brava attracts visitors throughout much of the year. The Costa Brava is particularly appreciated for its combination of coast, culture and proximity to both the metropolis of Barcelona and the Pyrenees mountain range.
Lloret de Mar is one of the most well-known resorts along the Costa Brava and has long attracted travelers. Here you will find long sandy beaches, places to swim and a nice promenade with restaurants, cafes and outdoor cafes. Lloret de Mar is also a popular choice for those who want to combine relaxation by the Mediterranean with excursions to other parts of Catalonia and the Costa Brava. Thanks to its location, Lloret de Mar is a good starting point for discovering the Costa Brava. From here it is easy to visit smaller coastal resorts, hiking trails and attractions further up the coast.
Tossa de Mar is one of the Costa Brava's charming coastal towns and stands out from many other towns with its well-preserved historic town centre. Tossa de Mar's most famous landmark is the medieval walled city of Vila Vella, which is located by the sea and offers a fantastic view of the coast. A trip to Tossa de Mar is perfect for those who want a trip with beach life, history and culture. The narrow alleys, small squares and proximity to the sea create a special feeling that has made the town a favourite among many visitors to the Costa Brava.
Just a short journey from the coast of the Costa Brava lies Girona, a city that has a completely different feel to the coastal resorts. It has one of Spain's best-preserved medieval city centers with city walls, cobbled streets and historic buildings. Girona is the largest city in the Costa Brava area and is located a few kilometers from the coast. Girona's old quarter, the impressive cathedral and the colorful houses along the Onyar River make Girona one of the most popular excursion destinations in the Costa Brava.
One of the Costa Brava’s most famous attractions is the Dalí Museum in Figueres, the birthplace of Spanish artist Salvador Dalí. The museum is one of the most visited in Spain and contains the world’s largest collection of Dalí’s works. A visit to the Dalí Museum is something out of the ordinary. The building is as spectacular as the art inside and provides an insight into Dalí’s imaginative world. For many who travel to the Costa Brava, the museum is one of the absolute highlights of their trip.
