The Costa Brava/Catalonia region

Catalonia, or perhaps better known as the Catalunya region, is the area of northern Spain bordering the Mediterranean just to the south of the French border.

This ancient kingdom once extended from near Narbonne in France down to Barcelona and eastwards to include the Balearic Islands. The area was later divided between France and Spain but even today it remains fiercely Catalan, as can be seen by the numerous red and yellow striped flags proudly displayed.

Perhaps Catalunya greatest gifts to the world have been its artists, Joan Miró and Salvador Dali are both from this region, but today’s artists, the chefs of Catalunya lead the world with their own inimitable styles and the rather exceptional cuisine, demonstrated best perhaps by Ferran Adria of El Bulli fame, held by many to be the best restaurant in the world.

For the holidaymaker this is the Costa Brava, known throughout the world for its scenic beauty, aquamarine seas and yellow sandy beaches. The most attractive area of the coast is the small area around Palafrugell which stretches from Pals and Begur in the north, south through Aiguablava, Tamariu, Llafranc, Calella de Palafrugell to the gardens of Cap Roig. This dramatic coastline abounds with beautiful bays, coves and headlands, interspersed with golden sandy beaches and is washed by sparkling seas. The glistening white villages of Tamariu, Llafranc and Calella de Palafrugell, each very different, are the perfect locations for relaxing holidays.

Inland the countryside is mainly agricultural interspersed with some wonderful timeless villages like Peratallada and Ullastret set against a distant backdrop of the ever present Pyrenean Mountains. If you want to explore, visit Pals, the walled medieval city; Bisbal famed for its production of ceramics; Torroella de Montgri with its Gothic palaces, courtyards and narrow streets that nestle beneath the Castell de Montgri dating from 1294 and the spectacular gardens of Cap Roig. There are various markets to explore, vineyards to visit and slightly further away the Dali Museum in Figures is well worth a visit; whilst the vibrant city of Barcelona is less than 2 hours away.

For the more energetic there are no fewer than 5 golf courses near Palafrugell; you can play tennis; follow a number of planned walking and cycling itineraries; go scuba diving; enjoy all manner of water sports; hire a boat and explore the coast; or just relax soaking up the sun on one of the beautiful beaches for which the area is renowned.


Llafranc area

Llafranc is a charming, small resort with a long golden sandy beach that is set on a sparkling bay between its fishing and pleasure port, and a majestic tree clad hillside. It is popular with families, beach lovers and those seeking watersports, walkers, cyclists and is renowned for its excellent fish restaurants which are set on the promenade overlooking the sea. One of our favourites is the restaurant at the Hotel Llevant.

Holidays here are relaxed, lunches are long and the evenings are late but quiet. The paseo is the prelude to the evening meal with longer walks along the coast for the more serious hiker, one of the most popular is around the nearby headland to the next resort, Calella de Palafrugell or up to the lighthouse, El Far, for amazing views over the bay.

There are many local festivals in the surrounding towns and villages - in late May Palafrugell holds its Spring festival, the Caroussel Costa Brava; on 23/24 June the Festa de St John is marked all over the region with bonfires and firework parties; in July and August Llafranc and nearby Calella de Plafrugell hold their Cantada d' Havaneres musical festivals that involve the singing of local sea shanties on the beach.
