Spain is an amazingly diverse country. There are many differences between its regions - culture, food, history and language - and our holidays in Spain are the perfect way to really 'get under the skin' and into close contact with the different traditions of Spanish life.
Combine a stay at the beach with a choice of gentle walking and cycling routes for an active family holiday. You stay in the fishing village of Calella de Palafrugell, where the rocky coastline has a number of small coves, nearby, to explore. We provide a range of fully researched, self-guided walking and cycling routes, typically at Activity Level 1. A complimentary Headwater bike for your exclusive use throughout your stay is included to give you total flexibility.
