Lloret de Mar
Lloret de Mar is located in the southern part of the Costa Brava between Blanes and Vidreres, in the county of La Selva. With over seven kilometres of coastline, Lloret de Mar is one of Catalonia’s leading tourist destinations. Bathed by intense blue water, the white sand of Cala Morisca, Platja de Canyelles, Platja de Lloret, Cala Banys, Platja de Fenals, Platja de Sa Boadella, Platja de Santa Cristina and Cala d’en Trons merges with the unmistakeable landscape of the Costa Brava.
The cultural and historical heritage of this ancient fishing town is of incalculable value. The many cultures and peoples that have settled in Lloret de Mar have left their mark in the form of Iberian settlements, mediaeval castles, chapels and gardens. Its major attractions include the wonderful Santa Clotilde Gardens, which embody the spirit of the noucentista cultural movement in Catalonia. The modernist Church of Sant Romà, built in the Catalan Gothic style, is another must-see attraction, as is the Castle of Sant Joan, perched on the top of a hill right next to the sea. Meanwhile, the modernist cemetery of Lloret de Mar preserves the influence of its Indiano legacy.
Tourism and retail are the mainstays of Lloret de Mar’s economy. This well-established, modern seaside tourist destination boasts a comprehensive cultural, sporting, heritage and gastronomic offering that will delight visitors.
