Lloret's Rough Sea

 After yesterdays photos showing the rough sea on Fenals beach I wouldn't have thought that today would have been much different, but I was wrong, again we have had rain but this time Lloret beach and sea front have taken a pounding far far worse than Fenals! We were down there to get these pictures today, but were only allowed so far along the beach front as the police were stopping access towards the castle end of the beach. The noise from the sea crashing up against the wall sounded like thunder and at times was quite frightening! The bar at Cala Banys only opened yesterday for the start of the season but theres no way anyone could sit on their terrace today.

Lloret Weather in March


The recent spell of good weather has abruptly come to an end! In Fenals today the beach has been taped off by the police to stop anyone getting too close to the sea...which is very unpredictable on days like these!

Lloret de Mar Restaurant - La Campana


Locals and regular visitors to Lloret de Mar all know where to go for the best chicken in town....this is La Campana or Pedro's as its quite often referred to. You wont find a menu here as the only thing to choose from is either quarter, half or if you think you can manage it - a full chicken! To start off your meal you can order one of their tasty colouful salads and bread which will come drizzled with olive oil and rubbed with tomatoes - a Catalan speciality! 

The recipe for La Campana's spit roasted chicken gives it a unique taste which many other restaurants have tried in vain to copy !!
