Lloret de Mar October weather

The weather has now taken a dramatic change for the worse just recently, not only in Lloret but up and down the coast they are seeing heavy rainfall which is flooding some roads making travel very difficult and dangerous in some areas. In Lloret we have had heavy rain but the temperatures are still very mild...even warm enough for a walk out in shorts and T shirts in between the bouts of rain!

October in Lloret

The summer season is almost over in Lloret, a few hotels and businesses will soon be closing until next year. After the month of October while the large clubs/disco close there is still a good selection of the smaller bars, restaurants shops etc, and just now the weather is still very good...so it maybe an ideal time to take a relaxing few days holiday!
These photos were taken this morning (3/10/16) just as the sun was rising over Lloret de Mar beach.

Jardin de Cap Roig

Located on the Costa Brava at just 63kms from Lloret are the beautiful gardens of Cap Roig, very near to Calella de Palafrugell. Walking around the 17 hectares of garden you can see almost 1,000 species of plants & trees from all over the world and with its maze of walkways situated high on the rocky coast above the sea you have fantastic views of the surrounding countryside and coast.

Here is just a small sample of the photos we took on our visit.

Llorets Picasso Run

Friday evenings Picasso run was a great event with all the runners getting absolutely covered in coloured powder. The race started at the carousel square from there they made their way down towards the seafront and on towards the castle turn at the roundabout and back to the start again...well done to all the runners they did great and gave us all a few laughs!

Fiesta time in Fenals

 The local fiesta has been a massive success this year, the weather has been very good (in fact its been Hot!) so the 2 days festivities all went ahead has planned. Here are just a few of the many photos we took of the fireworks and music/dancing events...lots more can be seen on the Group Facebook page.
