Lloret Beach
It is located in the centre of Lloret de Mar and 150 away from Hotel Santa Rosa, which makes it a perfect choice to enjoy the sea in case of a short trip or traveling with kids. It has parking facilities that enable visitors to leave their cars right next to the beach
With more than one and a half kilometres long, this is the largest beach in the town, with white and thick sand, showers, WCs adapted for disabled people and all the necessary facilities to enjoy the sun and the sea in total comfort.
Cala Boadella
This is one of the genuine small bays in La Costa Brava , it’s rather difficult to access so it’s a real paradise, just 10 minutes by car or bus from Hotel Santa Rosa. Cala Boadella combines the charm and crystal-clear water of the small coves of the Costa Brava with the space of larger beaches. The practice of nudism is authorized.
The peacefulness of this 250 meters long beach is its main attraction. Visitors to this beach can enjoy a practically unspoiled beauty spot.
Fenals Beach
Fenals is the second largest beach of Lloret de Mar with an extension of 700 meters. It is located in a bay sheltered from the winds by a hill that separates it from the town center and Lloret Beach. It is quite similar to the main beach because its sand is also thick and even has the same inclination. Like all the beaches of Lloret, Fenals also enjoys calm and crystal clear waters.
Santa Cristina Beach
This beach is set in an outstanding spot between two large hills that shelter it from the wind and waves, ensuring constantly calm water.
Santa Cristina Beach is reached from the chapel after which it is named, close to which there is a car park. The path on the left of the chapel that takes you right down to the beach gives you a taste of what you will find.
This sandy path surrounded by shady trees, amid birdsong and the sounds of the ocean, brings you to a beach that is less than 500 metres long.
