Review:
Blanes is a popular coastal town located about an hour north of Barcelona, where it marks the start of Spain’s Costa Brava region. What makes Blanes stand out from other coastal towns are its fabulous beaches, clean sparking water and old-world charm. This is one of the few coastal resorts in Spain which has not been ruined by rampant tourism, and you will still find an interesting downtown where the small streets and squares are filled with Catalan eateries, tapas bars and boutique shops. You can choose from several beaches including the beautiful 4-km S’Abanell beach and the small and cozy Sant Francesc Beach. For a change of pace you can take a scenic boat trip to Tossa de Mar, to view the beautiful coastline from a new perspective.
Blanes, 17300 Girona, Spain
