Lloret de Mar sunrise

 This mornings view of the sunrise over Lloret.

A day in Palamos

Up until about 5-6 years ago Palamos was very easy to reach via the boats from Lloret, but since they have stopped doing these trips so far up the coast then you would have to travel there by car or bus. At only about 30-40 minutes by car from Lloret then it's a very nice place to visit.

The port of Palamos is also a regular stop off point for some of the cruise liners sailing their way around Mediterranean, the 'Thompson Dream' is one liner which is often seen there.

In the port there is a vey interesting fishing museum which gives a great insight to how fishing is done and what sort of life the fishermen actually have. Also you can take part in their cookery classes showing how to prepare and cook some of the local seafood caught that very day.

Above is a boat in the port which has been turned into a very nice restaurant!

Two local fishermen doing what seems to be the very tedious job of repairing the nets.
