A day in Palamos
The port of Palamos is also a regular stop off point for some of the cruise liners sailing their way around Mediterranean, the 'Thompson Dream' is one liner which is often seen there.
In the port there is a vey interesting fishing museum which gives a great insight to how fishing is done and what sort of life the fishermen actually have. Also you can take part in their cookery classes showing how to prepare and cook some of the local seafood caught that very day.

Canyelles Beach - Lloret
Just a short way up the coast on the way to Tossa de Mar from Lloret lies Canyelles Urbanisation, this area has its own beach which is surrounded by woodland, apartments and villas. On the beach is the Canyelles Chiringuito - handy for a drink or snack, or there is a large restaurant just with lots of outdoor seating where they do a fantastic 'menu del dia'
Boats from Lloret visit the beach during the summer months, or you can catch a local bus from Lloret seafront, but if you have your own car then there is ample parking.
