Costa brava
The north eastern Catalan region of Spain can boast a magnificent destination in Costa Brava a region long neglected by tourism but that is beginning to change. The beautiful curving beaches on the Atlantic coast are inviting, affordable and closer than you think. Booking your reservations at a Costa Brava hotel can be difficult at certain times of the year so planning ahead is necessary at peak holiday times of the year. For anyone visiting there is an endless list of activities to keep you busy here. On, over and in the water include para-sailing, hang gliding, fishing, tour boating, sailing, motor boating, water skiing, wake boarding and surfing, scuba diving and snorkeling. On land you can walk, run, bike, hike, site see, eat, shop, party and rest. A great destination with something for everyone. Costa Brave meaning rugged or wild coast is appropriate name the rugged cliffs tower over the beaches. Some towns in the region of Costa Brava have really gone all out to attract the tourists new hotels and renovations, shops and eateries and a variety of tourist attractions. Still there are the hidden gems tucked away along the rugged coast where it seems time has stood still and life is pretty much as it was one hundred years ago. renting a car is worth it even if only for one day to explore the back roads and catch the glimpses of the ocean from high on the cliffs. Also finding those hidden gems of villages where traditional foods and art work can be seen and purchased. Along these rocky coast you will find the Dali Gala Museum housing many works from the noted Spanish surrealist painter Salvatore Dali and Pablo Picasso museum. These and other artists frequented the area due to its beauty and remoteness in the early part of the 1900′s. Costa Brava is fun to explore and see.
