Costa Brava Summer Festivals Program 2018

We all know that summer is festival time throughout Spain, and as it could not be less, an area with as many tourist attractions as the Costa Brava, northeast of Catalonia, is added to the offer.

In my most recent trips along the Costa Brava in summer the music festivals They have always occupied a place on the agenda of activities.

Indeed, a perfect plan of holidays on the Costa Brava It can very well combine beach days in coves or corners with as much charm as, for example, Calella de Palafrugell, with the visit of medieval towns, such as Besalú, in peratalla o Pals.

Also discover some corners of the artistic heritage, such as the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes, with its imposing location on the side of a mountain above the Llansá Bay y Port de la Selva.

Or enjoy some adventure activity, for example, in the Empuriabrava Skydiving Center.

And to round off the day, enjoy a good Music concert of some of the festivals that take place in the summer season.
