CATALONIA - COSTA BRAVA: TOSSA DE MAR

Here you can see some pictures I have taken when I visited Tossa de Mar with two friends. We had been invited by Toni, a friend of a friend, and I will always be very grateful to him for his hospitality and for his kindness to all of us. Tossa is really a wonderful and lively town of La Costa Brava, Girona.

Interesting places, beaches and coves I visited in Tossa de Mar:

• Old Town and Castle
• Ronda Way around Tossa de Mar
• Giverola Beach
• Pola Cove
• El Codolar Beach
• Platja Gran Beach
• Platja Menuda Beach

If you are interested in diving, I strongly recommend Tossasub Diving Centre. I enjoy a lot the Scuba Diving Course I did there.
