A day at Sant Feliu de Guixols

 For interesting days to other nearby towns out from Lloret de Mar then you have a choice of either inland medieval villages or other seaside resorts you can visit. The most popular with easiest access by public transport are Blanes or Tossa de Mar, but just beyond Tossa is the lovely little seaside resort of Sant Feliu de Guixols....not as easy to reach as some places but well worth a visit to see the historic town and its small port. Boats from Lloret travel up the coast to Tossa de Mar from where you can then take another boat to Sant Feliu or catch a bus to Girona bus station and then take another bus into Sant Feliu.

 The Benedictine Monastery dating back to the 10th century is now home to the towns History Museum.

Lloret de Mar Triathlon

 Guests of the hotels and residents of Fenals were woken very early this morning as the Triathlon got off to an early start with the commentator for the event on the loudspeaker at 8.30 reading out the agenda for the morning! I didn't get to see the swimmers but here are a few pictures of the cyclist's on the start of their 20km race.
