Views of Lloret de Mar

 Taking a walk around the castle will give you some of the best views of Lloret especially when there are clouds in the sky, it makes the picture much more dramatic!

Looking back towards the town.

The town hall can be seen just inbetween the towers of the castle.

Lloret de Mar October Weather

 Lloret is still experiencing very good weather this week, yesterdays temperature was 25ºc with predictions that it could possibly reach 28-29ºc for the weekend....great news for those who are here for a late summer break!

Lloret Market Day

Tuesday morning and I think that just about everyone in town headed to the market this morning! Lloret's market is held every Tuesday in the Reiral district, from the roundabout by the bus station just make your way on the main road heading up towards the Olympic Park hotel and you cant miss it.

Umbrellas Galore, do they know something we dont?

Thinking it wouldn't have been so busy this morning I set off to see what bargains were to be found, but I was wrong it was packed this morning! Several coaches which had brought shoppers in from other resorts were parked near by, one bus that I noticed had come all way down from Playa de Aro!

 Every other stall seems to be selling shoes, be very wary though - probably all made in China and not a single pair of leather shoes in sight!

Freshest fruit and veg you will ever find!

Cheese, meat and fish counter

Strawberries and cream for tea?

Lloret de Mar Castle

 Views from the rugged pathway leading around the Castle of Lloret which I should think is the most photographed landmark in the town. To photograph these stunning views of Lloret you only have to make your way to the Castle at the end of the beach where you will find the pathway cut out from the rocky coastline...just follow the path through tunnels and steep staircases until you simply cant walk any further. One tip though, dont forget to take a bottle of water so you dont dehydrate, you wont find any shops along this path !! :-)

 Looking at these two photos shows just how this coast gets the name 'Costa Brava'

Through the tunnel below the castle.

Its much easier going down than going up!

Lloret de Mar Views

Lloret from Sa Caleta

After the heavy rain of yesterday in Lloret, this morning we awoke to blue skies with quite a lot cloud, but today the clouds were not rain clouds but large white ones and the sun was shining again - Ideal conditions for getting out and about to take a few photos. To start the day we headed over to Lloret  to take a walk along the path which takes you around the castle.

These are the first few pictures...lots more to come!
