Costa Brava Holidays
On the north-eastern tip of the main stretch of coastline for holidays to Spain, Costa Brava literally translates as ‘Wild Coast’. This is an apt name for the scenic rocky shores and swathes of overgrown forest which you’ll catch a glimpse of on holidays in Costa Brava. The resorts in Costa Brava take on a suitably rustic character too, with traditional mountain villages like Begur interspersed with national parks and towns filled with interesting cultural pursuits such as Girona and Platja d’Aro. That’s not to say it’s all about exploration though, if you just want to unwind on a beach all day that’s fine – there are resorts in Costa Brava such as holidays in Calella and Blanes which welcome you with endless stretches of unspoilt golden coastline. And those of an active nature will be taken with the large water parks, lively clubs and British bars found in holidays to Lloret de Mar. Read more about all the holidays in Costa Brava below:
