About
Tossa de Mar is a picturesque coastal enclave on Spain’s famed Costa Brava, renowned for its crystal‑clear Mediterranean waters and a trio of idyllic beaches that cater to all kinds of seaside lovers. At the heart of the town lies the long, sandy Tossa Beach (Platja Gran), a 380‑metre stretch framed by the iconic medieval castle walls, offering sun‑soaked stretches and a lively promenade lined with cafés and beach facilities. Just beyond the bay sits La Mar Menuda, a quieter 180‑meter strip ideal for families and water‑sport enthusiasts, complete with equipment hire and patrol services. For those seeking a more secluded experience, El Codolar, tucked behind the historic walls, presents shallow waters and a calm atmosphere perfect for gentle swimming. Beyond its beaches, the town’s heritage enriches the visitor experience: an ancient hospital‑turned‑cultural centre, a Roman villa, a grand parish church, and the remarkably preserved walled old town where cobblestone lanes, historic landmarks, and narrow alleys weave an evocative tapestry of history. All of these attractions, coupled with the vibrant local cuisine and the warm, approachable atmosphere, make Tossa de Mar an unforgettable destination for families, history enthusiasts, and beach‑buddies alike.
