Mostra Internacional de Films de Dones de Barcelona - June

Advantages: great for walks and very friendly.....
Disadvantages: getting used ot the coastal railway, very close to it...

...quieter than Malgrat, but its more of a place where you book your hotel and go to the beach, the shops are very limited, however you do have market stalls at night and the resort is closer to Burger King! Lol. If you wish to go, you can book a hotel and book a flight to Barcelona. If you fly to Barcelona, you can catch the train to Malgrat, however you have to switch once, we changed at Badalona ( not a resort, it's a Spanish town, pretty cool, stayed there once with aunty, too Spanish though lol). The train takes around an hour to get to Malgrat but its nice as you get to see the other resorts, but beware, close your eyes! Lol……. There's a few nudist beach's along the way……. Overall, I really enjoyed Malgrat de mar, there's plenty to do, and in two weeks you would of seen everything, done everything, oh and did I mention, there's also... Read review

...checked and noted they beat relegation rivals Sociedad 1-0 at home to finish above them and stay in the league, which was last night. Thus, I have just duly text my mate Ramzi in Barcelona (I love modern technology!); Me ~ "Congratulations Amigo… U stayed up … Espanyol! Espanyol!" Ramzi ~ "Miracle scored in 92 min !" … Goodness, high drama there then I thought! … Me ~ "Muy Bien Amigo!" (Means, "Very Good Friend") Ramzi ~ "Gracias amigo for support" Love it !!

Translated, it means "New... Read review

Advantages: Picturesque, Hot!
Disadvantages: Quiet!

...selection of small tasty meals (sandwiches, chip butties etc) for a reasonable price (about 2.50 euros ish). Parking is quite difficult in this resort, so if you’re hiring a car for your holiday you can expect to have to walk a fair distance from your parking spot to where you’re staying generally, especially if you’re looking for free parking. There is a bus station that has buses going to Barcelona (18 euros each, return) and neighbouring Lloret De Mar (like a sunny Blackpool if I’m honest, and plenty of dodgy fake designer stuff which I wouldn’t touch with a bargepole haha). I didn’t take note of any more routes but wherever you go, expect to be going through winding high up roads that can be quite unnerving (especially in the dark) – if you’re driving it’s definitely safer to be driving slowly and surely so as to be safe on those roads...
