COSTA BRAVA

You´ve seen the iconic images of the beaches of the Costa Brava region with their crystal clear water, rocky cliffs and golden sand. Now enjoy the reality at beaches like Llafranc, Calella de Palafrugell, Tamariu and Aiguablava to name but a few. Stop for a while at one of the delightful bars and cafés to enjoy the views overlooking the sea. Venture further inland and you can explore quaint medieval villages steeped in history such as Pals or Peratallada. Meander through their network of tiny cobbled streets, soak up the atmosphere and take yourself back to centuries gone by…

A must for any visitor.

ACTIVE TOURISM

Nestled in the heart of the Gavarres national park, Mas Torroella is ideally situated for guests to enjoy a range of active pursuits. The Gavarres is criss-crossed by a network of trails for both hikers and mountain bikers of all abilities. Add to that the proximity to the sea and you open up a great choice of water sports and leisure pursuits such as scuba-diving, snorkelling, kayaking, wind surfing, water-skiing, jet-skiing, sailing and fishing. Or just relax and enjoy the idyllic scenery of the Costa Brava coastline on a boat cruise or from a hot air balloon or helicopter.

For the more daring, why not try an ultralight or a parachute jump!
