Welcome to… Costa Brava the place you absolutely Welcome to…

Costa Brava the place you absolutely HAVE to visit on your next trip to Spain 🇪🇸 It truly has it all stunning beaches 🏖️ beautiful countryside 🌾 charming villages 🏡 and the list goes on!

Is it a new spot, absolutely not but to me it kind of feels like the hidden gem you only really visit if you’re in the know. It hasn’t really blown up similar to the likes of Barcelona, Madrid, or the Balearics so it still has that laid back, authentic Spanish feel without all of the crowds.

I had the pleasure of visiting with @costabravapirineu @lloretturisme  and @jet2pics and we went to a number of spots so I’ll be putting a full travel guide together soon with all of my recommendations for places to eat, things to do, best beaches and more

📌 Save this post so you remember for your next trip and send to a friend you want to explore a new part of Spain with! 🇪🇸

WHAT TO DO
🏖️ Beach lovers: Lloret de Mar has stunning coastline and crystal clear blue water. Some of my favs were Cala Boadella, Sa Caleta Lloret, Playa de Fenals, and Cala Canyelles. You can hope between them using @dofijetboats @lloretturisme 

🚴‍♀️ Cyclists and hikers: Costa Brava is a huge cycling and hiking destination. Book an e-bike tour with @burricleta to ride through the Spanish countryside and the medieval villages of Pals, Peratallada, and Ullastret.

🍷 Wine lovers: Tour the family-owned @masgelipals vineyard and book a picnic among the vines.

🌿 Garden lovers: Tour Santa Clotilde Gardens (some Game of Thrones scenes were filmed here!). Entry fee: €6

Save this post before you head to Nicaragua so you have the details handy on the trail 📌

📍 Getting there: I recommend renting a quad bike to reach the trailhead entrance, but you can absolutely walk the whole way if you have the time.

🎟️ Entry fee: $3 USD per person

🥾 The hike: About 2 hours each way. It’s medium intensity and gets steep in places, so wear proper shoes.

🌊 The payoff: At the end you can swim and stand right underneath the waterfall.

🎒 What to pack: There are no toilets or facilities, so bring plenty of water and a packed lunch if you want to eat at the falls.

📌 Save this for your Nicaragua trip planning and send this post to someone you’d want to visit Ometepe with! 

📅 Best time to visit: December to April is dry season while May to November is rainy season. I went in May and was very lucky with the weather - never saw a drop of rain. It was less crowded and cheaper too since it was out of peak season.

⛴️ Getting there: Fly into Managua, get a shuttle or taxi to the port of San Jorge near Rivas, then take a ferry across the lake. There are two ports on the island: Moyogalpa (the main port, about 1 hour) and San José del Sur (smaller, about 90 minutes).

🏡 Where to stay: The east side is more rugged and less developed, but the views of Volcán Concepción are unreal. I stayed at @anandaguesthouse which had the best views of the volcano from the beautiful garden.

🏍️ Getting around: Rent a quad bike! Roads can be rocky and steep, especially on the east side. Taxis are available for getting between places.

Things to do:
💦 Waterfall San Ramón: medium intensity hike, but so worth it
🏊‍♀️ Reserva Natural Ojo de Agua: around $10 entry that goes toward food and drink. A beautiful place to swim and relax
🍫 @elpitalparadise see how chocolate is made and do an unlimited tasting. It’s also a hostel with a really cute lakefront café
🌅 Playa Mango: the best sunset view of Volcán Concepción, with drinks by the lake, kayaking, swimming and great music

Where to eat:
🍽️ Jungle Restaurant: a family-owned local spot up in the jungle
☕ Pan de Mamá: breakfast and amazing coffee
🫓 Maiz: pupusas
🍛 Café Campestre: some of the best curry I’ve had
