Roses
Costa Brava
About this spot:
Just a short drive from Barcelona you get a nice spot with the strongest wind in the Catalan coast. Place has been occupied by windsurfers historically but there are more and more kiters these days. Area is great to explore during the non-windy days - you can find medieval buildings, fishing villages, historical sights there. Infrastructure is great, there are nice kite-schools, bars, clubs, restaurants etc. Good to travel with kids as well.
Important: This destination may have COVID-19 travel restrictions in place, including
specific restrictions for lodging. Check any national, local, and health advisories for this
destination before booking.
