Lloret de Mar - Santa Clotilde

The peaceful gardens of Sant Clotilde are only a short bus ride away from Lloret de Mar, just take the single deck bright yellow 'L2' bus from any bus stop in Lloret...at present the the fare is just €1.30. Or if you are staying in the Fenals area then you are only a few minutes walk away! Santa Clotilde is a nice way to spend a couple of hours strolling around the gardens from which you have fantastic views of the sea and the rocky Costa Brava coast. 

Designed in the Italian renaissance style by Nicholau Maria Rubio I Tuduri in 1919 the gardens are perfectly 'manicured' and have a large variety of trees, plants and sculptures which line the carefully planned walkways leading to the many terraces and staircases.

Lloret in June

It does seem that Lloret is ready for the summer season at last!

Fenals beach is much busier these days, pedalos and sunbeds are now on the beach ready for hire. There is more of a holiday atmosphere about the place now that there's more people in town and the sun is shining!

Oscar and his team have now begun what I hope will be another busy season for them with the para-sailing & fly-fish trips from Fenals beach.

A new feature on both Lloret and Fenals beach this year are the Beach Boxes, they are available throughout the day and could be ideal to lock away your belongings if you want to leave the beach while you go for a meal or drink. 

 

 

Lloret de Mar Views

 The calm after the storm! 

Following yesterdays storm these photos were taken showing the views out at sea, not great weather but we can certainly get some great photos....much better than the same old views!

Lloret de Mar weather in May

 We often hear the saying 'four seasons in one day' and today in Lloret we have had exactly that!

This mornings view looking out across the beach we can see blue skies and the deep blue colour of the sea, since these photos were taken the weather changed drastically. The afternoon has been cold and windy with thunder, lightening, rain and hailstones...unbelievable weather just now!
