COSTA BRAVA HOLIDAYS - CATALONIA, SPAINThe Costa Brava ["wild coast"], stretching from Blanes, 60km north of Barcelona, to Portbou and the French border, was once the most beautiful part of the Spanish coast with its wooded coves, high cliffs, pretty beaches and deep blue water. In many parts it is still like this. The northern section of the coast retains its handsome natural attractions and boasts a string of small towns and villages.The busiest resorts - Lloret de Mar, Tossa de Mar and La Plaja d'Aro - are to the south. Sant Feliu de Guixols and Palamos are still working towns behind the summer rush.Just inland there are medieval villages to explore, such as Peralada, Peratallada and Pals. Wine, olives and fishing were the mainstays of the area before the tourists came in the 1960s.
