Lloret de Mar Nudist Beach

 Not many holiday makers are aware that just about 2.5km from Lloret de Mar's main beach is a very popular nudist beach, this is Boadella beach set in a stunning unspoiled location surrounded by woodland. To see more photos and videos of Lloret beaches visit  LloretdeMarStuff.com

Fenals Beach in Lloret de Mar

Here we have a short video showing Fenals Beach, always a great place to do your sunbathing if you like a more relaxing atmosphere than the main beach of Lloret de Mar.

More Rain in Spain!

You wouldn't believe the weather here could be so changeable here! After been kept awake most of Saturday night by the storm, it did eventually stop and gave us the chance to have a walk out in the warm sun until again the dark clouds came and then the rain started again along with hailstones and thunder & lightening! Today however we have the sun again but more rain is forecast for later...

The Rain in Spain!

Stormy skies over Lloret again! Last night we were kept awake most of the night with a massive thunder storm, which hopefully may clear the skies for a much needed change in the weather...the month of May hasn't been very good at all, with more rain and possible storms to come!
