Sant Joan Tower Lloret

As you look from the beach of Lloret towards Fenals you will see the tall round tower of Sant Joan perched on the cliffs. So if you ever feel like an energetic walk to reach it you have lovely views of all the local coastline. Here is a short video taken from the top of Sant Joan Tower when we visited this weekend...but we are very lucky that we live quite nearby so its more of a leisurely stroll for us!

Lloret de Mar - What to visit



For an incredible view of Lloret de Mar with a difference visit the the tower which stands high on the cliffs between Lloret and Fenals. Normally it costs €3 to get in but today it was free as were a few other places in Lloret such as the Maritim museum & Santa Clotilde Gardens. As you enter the door at the bottom of the tower you have a long winding staircase to climb to reach the top, but once there you have fantastic views over all Lloret.

Our fist view today as we reached the top were the 2 seagulls pictured here taking a rest on the towers wall!

Santa Clotilde Gardens


Only a few minutes walk from the beach of Fenals in Lloret de Mar are the scenic gardens of Santa Clotilde. Here you can spend a while taking a relaxing stroll around the winding pathways which lead to various levels  - each one giving its own stunning view of the finely manicured gardens, rocky coastline and cliffs on which the gardens are perched upon. Today was a great day to visit the gardens as the temperature this afternoon has reached a nice 28ºc, and also for this weekend its free entry!
