Advantages: Hot hot hot cheap cheap cheap Disadvantages: Touristy
Waht a superb holiday I had here. I went to Spain in April 1987 with my School on a weeks trip to the costa Brava. Its one of my favourite holidays to this date. I dont remember much about the town but I do remember that there were rocks at one end of the beach and a Tower/castle thing on it. Its ony about an hours drive from Barcalona where we had a great day out. Looked around the fort there. Lovely market too where you can buy your sombrero, donkey or castanettes!!!
Did you know that castanettes comes from the Spanish word for Chestnuts??? There is a great aqua park in Blanes for you out there that are more adventurous. You can have a complete spanish holiday with out a go on the kamikaze death slides!!! ...
Advantages: Lovely unspoilt beach, lots to do, champagne sangria! Disadvantages: Noise at night, building sites in the new developments
I have recently come back from Blanes in the Costa Brava. It's quite a commercial town with loads of great shops (avoid the pet shops if you're an animal lover). If you look hard enough, a few streets back from the main beach road, you will find the old town. It's awash with lovely old houses and chapels with glimpses of the wall that surrounds the main church up on the hill.
You have to look hard to find any typical Spanish restaurants but there are a few if you head down to the harbour and look in the backstreets. Not everyone speaks English and the menu can be hard to understand but all the food was wonderfull.
The beach is very clean and long, while the sea is great - very good waves tomess about in. The beach does shelve quite steeply so watch yourself in the sea!
I'd definitely recommend a trip to Barcelona and Figueres to ...
Advantages: very reasonably priced Disadvantages: a long way from main resort
we visited as a family of 5 and found the apartments to be very clean but basic. The staff were very helpful and friendly - especially the thomson kids club reps! It is a good twenty minute walk into the main resort of cala n'forcat but has a fabulous swimming pool so you dont need to go out to relax. I would recommend a hire car if you want to go out and explore the island at all as public transport is not very frequent. There are some very reasonable restaurants nearby - i wouldn't eat in the vista blanes as the one thing they don't seem to do well is food. All in all for the cost of these apartments in comparison to others in menorca make a great base from which to explore from. ...
