Lloret de Mar beach today.

Winter in Lloret de Mar

Winter in Lloret so far has been exceptional weather but I cant help feeling that bad weather is just around the corner, until then we are still able to get out and take some interesting shots around the town. Owing to the changing light and cloud formation during the early evening just about every photo taken has completely different look to the next.

At the opposite end of the beach the sun is just dropping down and gives these dramatic sky scenes. 

Mountain views from Lloret

 Living in Lloret de Mar we are not very far from the Pyrenees mountains so just a few minutes drive from the centre of Lloret brings you to these amazing views of the snow covered mountains!

Views over Blanes

 Today I'm showing you more of our photos we took from high up above the town of Blanes from the Sant Joan tower. In the photo below you can just make out the snow on the Pyrenees mountains which separate Spain & France, quite a strange experience when our weather is so mild just now with temperatures reaching almost 20ºc somedays!

Views from the Tower of Sant Joan in Blanes

Sant Joan Tower

 From just about any area of Blanes you have a view of the Sant Joan tower high on the hill overlooking the town, but from the top of this hill you have spectacular views which you could never imagine! On a clear day its said that you see as far as Barcelona in the distance and just now on these clear winter days is the best time to visit. To reach the tower there is a very good although narrow road which leads to the top of the hill and also a free car park.
