Overview

Introduction

The delightful town of Tossa de Mar is nestled on the Catalan coast, reached after a final stretch of winding road through hills planted with vines and cork trees. From Barcelona Airport it is a 1 hour 45 minute drive and from Girona Airport 38 minutes.

Tossa should not be confused with the much bigger and livelier Lloret de Mar a little way down the coast. Tossa is built into the hillside and criss-crossed by tiny paved and cobbled lanes. The street that runs along the waterfront and Platja Gran beach is populated by restaurants and cafes and there is a parallel street behind and further up thronged with shops. Further up the hill, built around the narrow lanes one finds more accommodation - small hotels and apartments. Larger hotels are well to the outskirts of the old town.

The resort has three sandy beaches. The Platja Gran is 380 metres long and 60 metres wide. To the west of this beach is the medieval castle. The Mar Menuda Beach is on the other side of the bay and is 180 metres long and 20 metres wide. Behind the walls of the castle is the small and very attractive El Codolar beach which measures 33 metres in length and has a width of 27 metres. It has a beach bar, showers and sunbeds.

But Tossa de Mar is not simply a resort. The centre of the town is medieval and has a history going back two thousand years. Ramparts and towers are to be found within the town and to the west side, on Mount Guardi, is the very imposing Castillo de Tossa de Mar which dominates the town and looks out to sea. Until the arrival of tourism, the local economy was based on grapes and cork- fishing was and is a minor contributor. The Governor’s house in the centre is now the municipal museum and houses an important collection of contemporary art.
