Why La Costa Brava?

Costa Brava means “Wild Coast”, and even if its climate isn’t especially wild
the coastline is amongst the most ruggedly beautiful in Spain.
But there’s lots more to See & Do too, with walking, hiking & cycling trails,
beaches & coves, seaside towns, medieval villages, castles, museums, festivals,
water sports, golf, wine and gastronomy and much, much more!

La Costa Brava in March

March is springtime on La Costa Brava, and there’s lots going on all around the Empordà region and beyond! The Black Music festival continues through March in and around Girona City, followed by the Strenes Festival towards the end of the month. For fans of sports on wheels, the 73rd Rally Costa Brava takes place mostly around Girona, but also visits Tossa de Mar, while the Volta de Catalunya cycle race this year passes through Banyoles, Sant Feliu de Guíxols, and Figueres. It’s also asparagus foraging season, and there’s still time to NjOY! some calçots before they disappear from menus. Girona-Costa Brava Airport swings back into life in March too, with most of its summer routes beginning to operate towards the end of the month.
