Take a walk along the beachfront in Lloret just as the sun is rising and you may be lucky enough to see had some fantastic views such as the ones seen here in these recent photos.

 As always on this special day there will be books and roses on sale by the town hall in Lloret de mar, not only is St George the patron saint of England but also of Catalunya and the custom is for men and women to exchange gifts of books and roses!

Sant Antoni Horse Parade

 The weather was looking very dark and cloudy for the start of yesterdays horse parade, but the rain managed to hold off until later in the day. Just in time the clouds cleared and the sun came out, ensuring that the parade went ahead as planned and everyone once again enjoyed this yearly event

Lloret de Mar events

Tomorrow in Lloret we can see the Sant Antoni Abad horse parade which takes place in Lloret centre. The horses and riders will meet at the Club Hipic at 9am, from there they will then make their way through the streets arriving at the church at approx 11.30 and then onto the Town Hall. 

Once at the town hall they then do their usual parade of 3 times around the paseo giving us all the chance to see the beautiful horses and their skilful riders.
