INTRODUCTION
There is plenty to do in a city like Costa Brava, Spain. With the Water Museum, The Old Town of Girona, and the Fageda Beech Forest one cannot complain of a lack of activities. Costa Brava is not only the home of beaches and relaxation but also the home of history.
Located near Barcelona, Costa Brava is a stretch of coastline that offers trendy hotels, dozens of tourist destinations and tiny old-world towns (such as Tossa de Mar) that you can't find anywhere else.
Here you will find dozens of attractions that cater specifically to tourists and lovers of art and culture. Within the riverside town of Girona you will find the Salvadori Dali Museum, a must-see for surrealism enthusiasts.
Similarly, the Benedictine Monastery at Montserrat can be seen here.
Along the coast, you will also come across Greek and Roman ruins of Empuries.
Sculpted by the Mediterranean Sea, Costa Brava is blessed with beautiful beaches, large cliffs and consistently tropical weather that makes it pleasant for visitors.
Although Costa Brava is breathtakingly beautiful, it has been criticized in the past for its very many hotel resorts, with large structures that impede the view and have turned the coastline into a hotspot for tourists.
These critiques aside, the area is still stunning and must be seen if you're in or around Barcelona and Costa Brava.
