The Costa Brava in Northern Catalonia is rocky and interrupted by towering cliffs and rich vegetation that falls over the sea. The coast is dotted with towns and small villages all along the way between Blanes and the French border, which well worth a visit any time of the year since average temperatures in the region are around 16°C and the region provides modern tourist infraestructure.

Costa Dorada is the popular name by which the coastline of Southern Catalonia is known and it must be said that the region honors its name with its beautiful beaches of golden sands. Its waters are quiet and not very deep in the majority of the beaches, so it is one of the favorite destinations for family vacations receiving an average of 3,500,000 visitors per year. Its waters are ideal for the practice of water sports such as wind surf or water skiing offered at the varied sport ports along the coast. The Costa Dorada has a strong fishing tradition, therefore its gastronomy is a not to miss experience.
