Costa Brava is a 150 kilometre stretch of rugged Mediterranean coastline in the Catalonian region, north east of Spain. It benefits from a breathtaking landscape; situated to the south-east of the Pyrenees and running from the French border all the way down to the stunning city of Barcelona. Costa Brava is known for miles of sandy beaches and a superb summer climate. Today, it offers international holiday resorts with modern hotels alongside unspoilt fishing villages with rocky coves and ancient towns with medieval castles.
