Lloret de Mar Hotels
Hoteliers in Lloret de Mar have recently agreed to better manage the bookings of their hotels, this will mean that some tour operators who deal solely with the groups of students etc they bring to Lloret will no longer 'find room at the inn' ! The town council wants to bring to an end the bad publicity that Lloret has had since the troubles over the 11th August period.
Statistics for the month of July for Lloret are down a little compared to the the same month last year, with a little over 160,000 visitors staying on average 4-5 days. The most likely reasons for this being Ryanair reducing their routes at Girona airport and also the 'poor' weather during much of July.

Lloret Clon Festival - Gansos Rosas
The Clon Festival is over for another year, and last nights band the Gansos Rosas (Guns n' Rose's tribute band) gave a great performance just as all the others who have played this year!
They danced, ran, sang and bounced about all over the stage for a solid 2hrs. We heard a fantastic selection of the best Guns n' Rose's tracks, such as Live & Let Die, Sweet Child o' Mine, Knockin' on Heavens Door and the finale was Paradise City!
I have uploaded videos to YouTube and there are more than 100 photos from the Clon Festival Web page........CLICK HERE .......to see them all.
(You can still see photos and videos from all this years 'Clon Festival' bands on the same page)

With the para sailing you can soar 50 mts high and take in the fantastic views of the coast. On all trips life jackets are provided and safety is always paramount.

Lloret de Mar News
Approximately 1,500 people joined in the march by Lloret's residents yesterday evening to demonstrate against the recent trouble in town. This was their way of saying just how sick and tired they are of the type of visitors the town seems to be attracting during August. The protestors are asking that the current regulations be reviewed and better enforced to bring an end to the mindless and drunken behaviour by a minority of the younger August tourist's who seem intent on causing as much noise, damage and unrest as possible during their stay!

Lloret de Mar News
A nice day in Lloret! |
A peaceful protest by the residents of Lloret de Mar is to take place tomorrow (Mon 12th Aug) to show their disapproval of the way the town has been shown by the media during the recent disturbances. This will be a silent protest by residents who will make their way from the athletics ground to Av Just Marles the area of the disturbances. All residents are welcome to join this silent and peaceful show of unity which they hope will show just how much they are against the way the town is now portrayed in other parts of the world. Lloret is so often given this bad image by some of the younger groups of visitors who think that the way to enjoy themselves is by causing as much noise, disturbance and damage possible to the town whilst here! Its now time for the town of Lloret de Mar to say enough is enough, and will only welcome those who can conduct themselves in a law abiding way.
WE all know what Lloret has to offer, its time that the right image was put out there to attract the right people, ie - Holiday makers who will come to Lloret with the intention of enjoying themselves in the many bars, clubs, restaurants, cafes, gardens, parks and fabulous beaches!
