Blanes , ligger i det kustområdet som heter Costa Brava, norr om Barcelona upp mot Frankrike.
Lloret the mar är mer känt område som många turister åker till, det är stranden som ligger efter Blanes.




Barcelona has good trains that go along the coast. It's a bit slow, but at the same time you can jump off where you want - for a lovely swim in the sea. If you want to go 20-30 minutes away to long beaches. Or do you want to go for 1.30 min for more turquoise water and mountains near the sea?
We stayed in Blanes, on the actual business of the day. And thanks to my stubbornness, we stayed there - thought that the first thing you see is in an industrial area. And yes, it was a 20 minute walk to reach the sea and the cute area, with shops. The harbor is the first thing you see. Then the mountains close in around you. I am who I am and enjoy "the little things". That is, we ate tuna sandwiches in a rather cool but simple cafe. Sees the sea and the surroundings. After these 20 - 30 minutes I am satisfied.
My husband, he is the one pushing, we should get up there, he points. We go up, up and up but now the question is - should we see the castle or the garden? Jardi botanica of course and he smiles. When we arrive he smiles even more and says something that makes me so happy! But at the time of writing, I have forgotten the perhaps simple but important words!
It is a nice garden, but they charge an entrance fee of 8 euros. I'm not used to this - in Sweden, parks are free entry.
And the view towards the sea, so fantastic.
And see his passion in his eyes when the camera came up and he wanted me to stand in front. How amazing, pictures he takes. To find back or find new ways to each other. It is fantastic!
Even my passion for plants blossoms when we are there and I feel at one with nature.
When I once again thought, now we're done, we went via the shore and the rocks.
Sant Susana and other long sandy beaches can throw themselves into the wall..when you can see something more unique and beautiful! How often do you get to experience that moment?
Facts:
Blanes, is located in the coastal area called Costa Brava, north of Barcelona towards France.
Lloret the mar is a more famous area that many tourists go to, it is the beach that is located after Blanes.
If you go north of Barcelona, you will see mountains and sea all the way. But most of the beaches between Barcelona and Blanes are separated by the sea from the mountain, from Blanes upwards you can find wonderful places where the mountains and the sea meet each other. We were in Cala de Frases and if you don't want to walk, there is a cute little train that takes you up. But I don't know much about it other than that it's a hop on and off train. (on wheels)
The train we are traveling on is going towards FIGEURES
If you don't want to go to Blanes, the last station with a beach station is Malget de Mar!
If you want to go to Lloret the Mar, you have to change to a bus in Blanes
