 However,
this urbanisation was once a beautiful town and much evidence of
this still exists. After a couple of visits, one can feel very
comfortable here. The town has various very desirable elements, such
as the wide promenade flanked by mature palm trees, the Santa Roma
church with it's Gothic altar and entrance door, the bronze statue
of Dona Marinera on the crag of El Rampent it's Blue Flag beaches
and the Sant Joan castle in nearby Fenals.Most holiday-makers come to Lloret de Mar for the discos, bars, pubs and all the other associated entertainment. They are not disappointed with the endless choice available. To this can be added bowling alleys, flamenco shows, water park, casino and bull ring. But time should also be made for discovering the 8km of beaches and coves along this part of the beautiful coastline. |
Every April, The Rally Catalunya Costa Brava starts and ends at the southern end of the promenade. A plaque and the handprints of all past winners can be found here.
The Lloret de Mar Festa Major is held from 24th to 26th July and provides Sardana dancing, live music and sports events.
Most Hotel accommodation is booked through package holidays with the major Tour Operators, but it is possible to make saving by organising independent travel and negotiating accommodation direct or through other independent booking companies, where more competitive rates can be acheived (see the GoogleAds on this page).
