Tossa de Mar, located between the city of Barcelona and the French border, is an old fishing village with a great historical background, today converted into a well-known tourist destination on the Costa Brava. The best place to practice the sport
Diving Costa Brava.
Imagine feeling like you're in the middle of nature and being able to enjoy the silence, discovering places in Tossa that you would never have imagined finding here, spaces of great beauty with all the scent of nature: pine, rosemary, thyme...
Imagine the smell of the sea and enjoy it while contemplating one of the most spectacular landscapes of the Costa Brava, a succession of cliffs and viewpoints surrounded by greens and blues, a whim of shapes that play with the sea, drawing inlets and outlets, beaches and coves.
Not without reason, National Geographic magazine rated Playa Grande in Tossa de Mar as one of the 25 best in the world in the ranking it compiled in 2013.
Imagine a place where you can travel back in time to scenes from bygone eras…
Tossa is a true open-air museum. Its prehistoric remains give way to a Roman Turissa, a medieval Tursa and a modern Tossa, first converted into a refuge for artists and intellectuals and later into a generous host for tourists and visitors.
This heritage legacy is the faithful testimony of all those people who, loving it, made this land their home, and from now on, yours too.
There is also a cultural, festive and active Tossa, which celebrates its oldest festivals and traditions and organises concerts, exhibitions, dances, fairs, painting competitions, markets, pilgrimages, sports competitions...
Tossa awakens your senses with a good table that is appealing to the eye, intoxicating to the nose and awakening the passion of the palate. Typical Mediterranean flavours, dishes prepared in the old fishermen's way, when they went out fishing and cooked on board their boats, the love of traditional and creative cuisine and, above all, the good meeting of both at the table.
Tossa is a town that knows how to entertain and welcome. We present to you an active, sporty, recreational and commercial Tossa, which offers you the facilities and services necessary to be able to practice a wide range of sports and entertainment activities individually, as a couple, with friends or with the family, right here or very close by.
