Lloret de Mar Boats



All the boats taking holiday makers up and down the coast to the other resorts are now back for the summer season. The most popular seems to be the larger and more powerful Dofi Jet as seen in the top photo. At this time of year you can travel as far as Tossa de Mar up the coast or Blanes further to the south. As the town gets busier then the boats will be sailing to other resorts further up and down the coast.

Lloret de Mar Today





This holiday weekend has been quite busy in Lloret with many visitors in town. It seems that most people in town are French, along with the Spanish who usually head for the coast every weekend. The weather has been excellent with no signs of it changing this week. If the forecast on the TV this morning is correct then temperatures are on the way up for the middle of the week.

Lloret de Mar Shopping

I wonder if we have a new annual event starting in Loret?


Yesterday [1st May] a large market was held in the El Reiral district, and it was packed! This is now the new location of the weekly market held on Tuesdays, much better than the old site behind the Casino. I gave up going to that one during the summer ages ago it was just impossible to get round!



The 1st of May has always been a day when all [or most] of the shops have closed and the streets around town have been deserted, but yesterday was a different matter. The large supermarkets were closed but just about all the other shops were open and the market it seemed was a huge success. It was a real treat to see many different stalls and real bargains to be had with lots of stalls selling good quality clothes at bargain prices.

The best market I've seen in Lloret yet !
