The Costa Brava region of Spain is located in the north east corner of Spain it is very popular amongst tourists who come for the beautiful beaches and sunny weather that favours the region for many months of the year. International tourist resorts have sprung up over the years between small and unspoilt fishing villages. The Costa Brava is part of the region called Catalonia. From here the entire region may be explored with its Gaudi architecture, Pablo Picasso museum, Olympic village and world-famous La Rambla Boulevard The area is filled with people walking around instead of driving cars .Here you are free to roam around and can stop for coffee, read a book, enjoy the street entertainers or simply to mix with the locals and work on your Spanish.


Europe's biggest water park is located just outside Lloret de Mar and the Marine land complex near Blanes. It’s a wonderful family visit popular with all tourists and locals alike. Although most visitors come to the Costa Brava for a relaxing holiday of sun and sea rather than serious sightseeing, there are nevertheless certain points of cultural interest in the area. These include Girona (Gerona), one of Catalonia's oldest cities. The city has a strong Jewish culture which has been well preserved through the years. Figueres is the home of the Salvador Dali Museum. Cadaquès, a simple fishing village on the coast about 30 minutes bus drive from Figueres. This is where Dali lived for many years; and beyond Cadaquès, Empúries (Ampurias) with its impressive Graeco-Roman remains.
