The Balearic Islands are located in the glittering Western Mediterranean Sea where great weather prevails all year round. The islands are the perfect getaway during cold winter weather because the Balearic Islands are the direct contrast of what you are facing at home. Like many archipelagos, it is a cluster of big and small islands: Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza and Formentera. Some other smaller islands are Es Conills 's Es Pardell, Santa Eularia, Plana, Florada and others, where you will have to book for an Balearic Islands accommodation.

Like the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands are also different from each other. In fact, all the big islands previously mentioned have a lovely personality of their own. It is also rich in the Spanish culture and traditions so you will see a completely different world here.

What to expect on the larger islands

Mallorca, also known as Majorca, is the island that has a combination of everything like golden beaches, rising mountains and other interesting landscapes. This island is yours to explore on your vacation and get some outdoor exercise. This particular island has burial chambers and other traces of habitation from 6000 BC!

The Spanish Royal family also spends their summer holidays in Marivent Palace built in Majorca. You too, spend your holidays in Majorca hotels! It is also considered the best island to shop from.

Ibiza, on the other hand, is very famous for its clubbing and parties. Even though Ibiza attracts many youths, it also attracts families for fun-filled family vacations. There are many historic sites in the island that were dubbed by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites such as "God's finger" in the Benirras Bay. The place has a rustic beauty that attracts tourists to explore the island on foot or through biking.

Next, we have the Formentera, an island renowned in Europe for its white clean beaches and crystal clear water. It is called the "last paradise on the Mediterranean" due the lack of urban development there. Lastly, we have the Menorca that is famous for its isolated beaches and coves. It also represents Spanish history because it has many prehistoric monuments. This island is the complete opposite of Ibiza and Majorca because it does not have a nightlife or many shopping places.

As you can see, each island is different and can provide a different kind of pleasure in its own way. You will love to visit these islands with your family or friends because they are the perfect place to either sit back and relax or go on adventures and explore the beautiful surroundings offered to you.

Located not very far away from the French boarder, is a popular destination for you to spend your Costa Brava holidays in: L'Estartit.

L'Estartit is a small town with not many inhabitants, but this makes it an excellent place for holidays in Costa Brava. Like many villages and towns along the Costa Brava, L'Estartit has been originally mainly a fishing village. But now tourism is its main sector, although fishing is still important.

The surrounding is beautiful; you can sail; windsurf or even dive near the port of L'Estartit or simply walk along the famous beaches (15 km) and enjoy the sight. There is also a mountain range which offers you a wonderful sight over the sea. You have a lot of Costa Brava hotels in L'Estartit that are close to the harbor, so I suggest booking one to wake up and immediately enjoy the sea.

One thing you have to see and admire are the Medes Islands or Islas Medas, a group of seven small islands that are protected by the Catalonian government. The islands were inhabited in the past, but nowadays they are not inhabited. The only building on the biggest Islet La Meda Gran, a lighthouse, was inhabited until 1930 but today is it automatic.

Molinet is the closest point to the Medes Islands, so you can walk towards this spot and observe the islands from there. But usually you can also see the islands from whole L'Estartit, so if you have a nice Costa Brava apartment in L'Estartit you can watch the islands from your room's window. 

If you wish to dive and explore the Medes Islands underwater, please be aware that there are strict regulations and special licences required. This is due to the need to protect this area and its plants and animals. So check the L'Estartit site to inform you about the regulations! And please respect the rules.

Golf in L'Estartit is also very popular, so you can use your Costa Brava holiday for that, too! Places for golf are the golf clubs Mont-Pla and Jocs, which offer you a beautiful location combined with your favorite sport during your holiday in Costa Brava.

Whether you like more sport activities or calm holidays, Costa Brava holidays in L'Estartit are always a good solution!

A perfect Costa Dorada holiday is not the same without visiting Cambrils.

Cambrils is a town directly located at the Costa Dorada, Spain. It lies in the Catalonia region of Spain.
Deciding to book a Costa Dorada hotel in Cambrils means experiencing a wonderful holiday time in one of the most popular locations along the coast.

Cambrils is a city with Roman origin and because of this there are still some signs showing the heritage, such as the architecture. But the city is still growing today, mainly due to the increasing tourism.

Family holiday is also a good reason to book accommodation in Cambrils, because it is not very far away from PortAventura Salou, so you can book the tickets for that in advance. If you think Salou is too active, Cambrils offers you a calm and relaxing location where you can replenish your health and soak up the sun!

The port of Cambrils is interesting to visit; if you like seeing boats and yachts you should absolutely see them at night or in the evening when it's dark. The harbor is illuminated and this makes an absolutely impressing sight!

Furthermore you have to visit one of the two parks in Cambrils, or if you can both. They are the Parc del Pescador (Fisher's park) and the Parc del Pinaret. Both parks are really huge and act as an oasis to enjoy your visit, to take a break from everything and to take a walk along the beautiful structure of the park. In the Parc del Pescador, Cambrils, there are many different types of plants and trees and a wonderful pond where you can stay.

Sometimes there are also musical events and festivals you shouldn't miss. The park del Pinaret is also stunning, it has also a lot of different trees and plants and many places where you can just sit down and relax.

For vacationers who are interested in Cambrils history, there is an archaeological site with ruins of an ancient Roman villa. Propably around 2000 years old, this ruin is like a portal that connects the past with today. Don't miss this! History-interested people should also visit the museums in Cambrils. There is the Museu Molí de les Tres Eres and the Museu Agrícola de Cambrils, which are both part of the Museu d'Història de Cambrils.

If you have a Cambrils holiday rental that is close to the sanctuary of the Virgin Mary (Ermita de la Mare), you should also see that. Next to the hermitage there is a tower which is a Cultural Asset of National Interest. Another tower in Cambril that you should visit during you Cambrils holiday is the watch tower Torre del Port. It was originally build to watch out for pirates (which was a large risk for towns around the coast). It is the characteristic of Cambrils.

You see, you have a lot of possibilities in Cambrils, for families as well as for couples or friends. Families who want to avoid the fuller location of Salou can book Costa Dorada hotels in Cambrils and the tickets Port Aventura, which is close.

Couples can also book a Cambrils hotel and enjoy their time together in the many romantic spots Cambrils offers. And friends can of course also have a good time at the Cambrils beach and bars and clubs along the city at night.

Do you like charming little towns and villages that are located along the sea? Then you have to spend you next holidays in Costa Dorada!
