Location & area recommendations

Additional information

The Costa Brava (Wild Coast) covers the northern coast of Catalunya and stretches from the French border, through the Parc Natural de Cap Creus, the Bay of Rosas, Cap de Begur, Tossa de Mar to Blanes and owes its name to the steep and rugged nature of the coastline, with impressive cliffs, hidden coves, interspersed by several sandy beaches in the Bay of Rosas as well as closer to Platje D'Aro and Playa de Sant Pol in S'Agaro, and then the numerous hidden Calas with small intimate sandy beaches between Sant Feliu de Guíxols and Tossa de Mar above the impressive and picturesque coastal road our apartment is located.

Apart from this unlikely unspoiled natural beauty, clean air and sea, wonderful beaches and extremely charming and interesting towns and fishing villages (who was not in love with villages and towns like Cadaqués, Begur, Pals, Llafranc, Calella and Tossa de Mar) of Costa, one should certainly not forget the interior: Girona, Figueres, Banyoles, Besalu, Castellfollit de la Roca and Olot located in the hinterland of the fascinating volcanic Garrotxa will certainly make a deep impression on you. Superb walking and cycling area also.

All these places mentioned are achieving very well everything is more or less within a radius of 60 km. from the apartment.

Girona is + / - 35 km from the apartment and you should not miss, whether you go shopping, the historic city with the cathedral and the famous "Call" will visit, eat out, visit a concert or simply by strolling around town and taste ... do not miss it!

Barcelona is + / - 100 km and do very well in a day than I advise you to leave to get enough of this particular Catalan city to enjoy on time. You can even consider from Blanes (where you can park) the direct train (Rodalíes) take (75 minutes) where you get off at Plaza Catalunya Metro Station and then immediately sits right in the center, without parking, and the infamous "to Barcelona caravanes ".....

Even the Pyrenees are doing Setcases Camprodon and Vallter (2000 m) in about two hours away. Well within reasonable distance from Tossa

The variety of options within short range, the location of this apartment so special .. nature, culture, history, bustling city life and a wonderful climate with the ever-present slight cooling sea breezes of the legendary Mediterraneo ... You are literally on top!
For those who are not traveling by car from the Netherlands there are more than attractive opportunities to visit this area.
 
There is a perfect and cheap flight connection between Amsterdam and Girona with Transavia, and also from Eindhoven or Maastricht you can fly with Ryanair at very competitive rates to Girona.

In hardly one hour and 40 minutes you are the heart of the Costa Brava.

For cyclists and walkers there are endless possibilities.

Every year numerous national and international cycling teams train in the preseason around here.
Both along the coast and in the mountains are the routes numerous, numerous "climbs" and runs up to 14% are a real challenge for the real cycling fanatic, but also the recreational (mountain) bikers come here more than pulling his average.

For walkers there is the GR, the Great Route: a north-south "hiking trail" of 200 km from Port Bou to Blanes (end of the Costa Brava) that the jagged coastline follows and is based on the oldest historical coastal paths of Catalunya and gives the best views you can imagine.
Of course you choose a time part of this route.
The entire route is described in the information provided in the apartment.
From the apartment as the forest also otherwise you will run into with much shorter routes, so for the less ambitious hikers, there are plenty of opportunities.

2km away is part of Club Giverola Club Hotel Giverola located directly on the sandy beach of "Cala Giverola" paradise located by the "National Geographic" in 2012 as a recommended destination appreciated.

Here you will find next to a wide sandy beach and gently sloping sea with crystal clear water all the luxury amenities such as beach beds, umbrellas and a large sunbathing area with a restaurant and bar within reach.

The excellent Catalan cuisine is a virtue which all regions of the Costa Brava deliver their contributions. Wherever you go, you can always enjoy the pleasure of natural, fresh, traditional, sophisticated, creative, or even brilliant kitchen. The main peculiarity consists in the combination of quality products from the sea and the mountains, as an example is a typical dish of chicken with prawns. All this without the specifics of each region to lose sight: on the coast, a sailor cuisine based on seafood, fish ..., with such famous combinations as "Suquet" and "arròs negre" (rice with squid, in the mountains with excellent meat and meat products and effective combinations like the dish of veal and mushrooms.

The absolute highlight among the restaurants, the famous "El Celler de Can Roca" in Girona, 3 stars in the Michelin Guide and recently voted the number 1 on the famous' ranking of the world's best restaurants in San Pellegrino!
 
I speak from experience when I say that this is the highest level of cooking if not only in taste, refinement and imagination but also to the natural gastronomy, decoration, not to mention the wine list .... this is Catalunya on its very-very best! For real gourmands who have something to celebrate not to be missed. Reserve early, waiting lists are long.
Dont forget .... your credit card :)

But there are many other attractive restaurants nearby that offer wonderful and reasonably priced lunch menus with fresh local produce and traditional Catalan specialties, such as "Els Tinars" in Llagostera, Mas in S'Agaro on the wide beach of Sant Pol, "Blanc" in Girona, "Can Roquet" in Romanya de la Selva or "Toc de Sol" in Castell d'Aro

For the most delectable fresh Catalan tapas in the area, go to Raku Restaurant, Placa del Firal, next to the church in Corca ... www.poblescatalunya.com
Highly recommended!

Of course there are in all places and villages also many fun, easy and delicious restaurants, where you no more than about € 15, - an afternoon full daily menu including wine and coffee order. That's what the Spaniards do, the main meal is at noon, followed by a small siesta ... a healthy habit I have experienced .. Buen Provecho!
