Lloret de Mar - March Weather

Lloret de Mar was basking in the sun today!

With the photos taken today you can see school kids on a trip to their local beach as well as families just relaxing and making the most of the fantastic weather! At this time of year we have lots of pensioners visiting the resort so its nice for them to be able to get out and about and enjoy a stroll up and down the seafront.

A Birthday in Lloret!

One of the tobacconist shops in Lloret de Mar has had a big birthday celebration this week. 80 years to be exact! This is the one near the church which is run by the Bertran family who opened their business in 1931. With the new non smoking laws enforced in Spain since January the family are not making any predictions of how this will effect their trade, but do say that trade is normally slow at the start of every new year until the tourists turn up!
