Tossa del Mar
Tossa del Mar. Located 90km north of
Barcelona, within Catalonia, is this wonderful gleaming white
town with it's 12th century walls, fascinating old quarter
and good beaches.
It could well be descibed as the perfect
base for a Costa Brava holiday.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, Tossa was a thriving port,
dealing mainly in cork. This declined and tourism took over.
Tossa became a beautiful place to stay, a place that had somehow
managed to retain it's charm and character. There are two
beaches here, Mar Grand and La Bauma, both offering wonderful
surroundings and clear water. In the summer, without an advance
reservation, it is almost impossible to stay here. Tourists
flock from all over the world to sample the beauty and unspoilt
character.
There are plenty of quality hotels and
restaurants to sample here and the nightlife is good yet not
over the top.
