A day trip to Blanes.

Blanes Marina

 Its so easy to find plenty of places to visit from Lloret de Mar, you only have to go the the local bus station and buy a ticket to the place of your choice. Just a 20 minute bus journey down the coast brings you to Blanes, A good day to visit for shopping would be Monday when the local market is held, the stalls stretch all along the seafront. The fresh fruit and veg stalls are located on the street which runs parallel with the seafront just one street back.
Blanes has a fairly large marina which you can walk around and watch for the fishing boats coming in with their catch of the day. Around the marina and seafront are numerous restaurants - you are actually spoilt for choice with the number of restaurants in Blanes, as you can imagine many of which specialise in seafood!
You can also take the 'hop on hop off' bus up to the Marimurtra Gardens set high on the cliffs from where you can see for miles! the gardens have more than 4,000 types of cacti from all around the world.
