Costa Brava, so called “The Wild Shore”, represents the territory that stretches for 153 kilometres along the most northern part of the Mediterranean coastline of Spain. It starts from Blanes northward of Barcelona and stretches to the very border with France, Portbou town.

Nature, climate and history created the place of unique unforgettable beauty that is difficult to grasp but that never fails to attract due to its greenery of lush vegetation against the emerald-azure spanless sea. Hanging over the steep cliffs and at times reaching the water edge the green cover tinges the magnificent golden sand in its colour mixing with the yellow earth and the main scenery far from the shore. The annual average temperature here is 16C, precipitation is temperate and the sun is shining in the sky for 2500 hours in a year lightening the arty-historical places, which remind about the distinguished past of this area.

However all these features are only visible and tangible lineaments of local life possessing the hidden pulse and awaiting you to discover it for yourselves. Beaches, bays, steeps and forests are situated amidst the famous places, among them – S’Agaro, Tossa de Mar, Begur, Lloret de Mar, Cadaques and Portlligat.

Number of people consider Tossa de Mar to be one of the most delightful resorts. Lloret de Mar is also very popular but it is too commercial and developed that is a disadvantage for some tourists. Remote Cadaques is the most untainted and pure place. It also is possible to spend the enjoyable time in other smaller settlements.

Modern and developed tourist infrastructure turned Costa Brava into one of the most attractive directions for travelling and rest. It is better to travel here in May, June, September or October. The biggest flow of tourists that occupy almost all the hotels is noted in July and August.
