For those of you who have ever landed at Girona airport you may have noticed a large sweeping bay on the coast just a few minutes before landing...this is the bay of Roses where the town of Roses lies to the Northern end of the bay. The beaches here are very fine sand which slope gently into the sea so its ideal for families with young children. Boat trips will take you out the picturesque Isles of Medes off the coast at Estartit just a little way down the coast. We took these photo when we visited Roses just this Thursday 9th Oct, we were very lucky as it was just the right conditions to get these shots of the stunning cloud formations!
We will go back to Roses at a later date and book into a hotel for a couple of nights as we found it would be the ideal location from where we could visit other places up in that part of Catalunya such as Cadaques, Port de la Selva and the monastery of Sant Pere de Rhodes.
Santa Margarida area of Roses - a residential area where the residents all have their own mooring for their boats right on the doorstep!
