Gran beach in Tossa de Mar
Gran beach in Tossa de Mar is located in the middle of the town, and is usually very busy, both with tourists and locals or people from nearby towns. It is easily accessible, although in summer it will probably be difficult to find parking nearby. The easiest way to get there is to park your car in a non-central area, and finish your journey by taking a stroll through the village.
It has a large number of services, both on the beach itself and along the promenade: bars and restaurants where you can have a drink or enjoy the gastronomy of the Costa Brava, lifeguard, parking area, shops, sun lounger hire and a yacht club. It is also accessible for people with reduced mobility thanks to the walkways and access ramps and adapted toilets and showers.
It is also worth mentioning this place for its special charm. From its sand, we can enjoy magnificent views of the Villa Vella de Tossa.
The main beach of Tossa enjoys the Environmental Quality and Blue Flag awards.

Tossa de Mar is one of the most emblematic and photographed towns on the Costa Brava. One of the main reasons for the town's interest is its spectacular fortified mediaeval centre, declared as National Historic-Artistic Monument.
The village is practically isolated from the neighbouring towns due to its rugged location. Thus, its landscape is determined by cliffs, small coves and countless corners of great natural beauty.
This setting is an ideal place to enjoy cultural tourism with a visit to the medieval centre and the Ametllers Roman Village, or active and sports tourism with its routes on foot or by mountain bike. You can also enjoy water activities such as diving, which will allow you to discover the marine life of its crystal-clear waters, full of life and colors.
Additionally, Tossa de Mar offers exquisite local cuisine that blends the flavors of the sea and the mountains, with traditional dishes like "cim i tomba," a fish stew that is a true delight. Strolling through its cobblestone streets, you will find numerous restaurants and taverns where you can taste this and other specialties of Catalan cuisine.
Tossa de Mar is a complete destination that combines culture, nature, sports, and gastronomy in a setting of great beauty.
