A special day for Craig

Yesterday 19th May was the 3rd anniversary of the sad and unnecessary death of Craig Mallon. A bench and flowers were placed at the scene where Craig lost his life. Family, a few local people and officials were there to give support to Craig's family on this sad day. The search still continues for anyone who can help with this investigation...if you were in Lloret de Mar at that time then it is possible you have just the smallest piece of information that could bring this to a close for Craig's family...if so please visit the Craig Mallon Appeal Facebook page.

Shark washed up on Santa Cristina beach

A dead shark was washed up on the nearby beach at Santa Cristina yesterday afternoon. It's thought it was a Blue Shark about 1.5 metres long, they have been spotted along this coastline before....the last reported sighting was last year when a small group were spotted near Barcelona resorts. The Blue Shark species is said to be harmless to humans unless they feel threatened.

Lloret de Mar local bus ride.

Looking back to the summer of 2012 here is a video I took from the local L2 bus as it travels along the seafront in Lloret de Mar.

Catalan Village - Santa Pau

Surrounded by gorgeous green country the historic village of Santa Pau is a must place to visit if you are travelling out on the roads away from the Costa Brava coast. The village is set in the Garrotxa volcanic area just 9km from Olot. For such a small village Santa Pau has a number of nearby places to eat or stay in the nearby area from top hotels to hostals and campsites...ideal for those who like to take to the countryside on foot or cycle.

Please come and give your support.....

Please can you all spare a few moments of your time to come along and support Craig's family on the 3rd anniversary of his death on Tuesday 19th May at 11am when a bench will be put in place at the place of Craig's death.
