Tamariu for beach lovers

Despite being a small town, Tamariu has award-winning beaches to suit all tastes and is undoubtedly the ideal place for those who love sand, sun and tranquillity. You can find crowded beaches such as Tamariu Beach, which offers quality clear waters, and fine sands and has all the services. If you want some quiet time, go to the little more isolated and hidden beaches such as Cala Aigua Dolça, which has a freshwater spring. The Platja dels Liris, a small beach with cliffs and Cala Pedrosa, where there are few bathers, are also great places to visit. Although if you are a lover of virgin and solitary places, Cala Marquesa and El Cau are two coves that can only be reached by boat. Both have golden-coloured gravel and turquoise waters that will leave you in awe. If you want to explore other beaches in the Costa Brava area, get a villa in L ‘Estartit and spend some time on the beach town nestled between Montgri Massif and the Mediterranean.

Tamariu for hiker lovers

If you are a lover of walking adventures, you should walk the Camino de Ronda. It is one of the icons of the Costa Brava and one of the best ways to get to know the area's landscapes. You will enjoy spectacular views of the Mediterranean Sea, explore archaeological ruins and discover hidden unspoilt coves! The route has sections of varying difficulty. If you want something simple for a fun excursion with the kids, you can choose the trail that leads from Tamariu Beach to Cala Pedrosa. The trail allows you to walk along the sea and go through the abundant vegetation of the forest. If you prefer something more demanding, take the route from Tamariu to Calella de Palafrugell, which lasts about two hours and enjoy incomparable views and wild paths.
