Day 105: Cala Giverola/Tossa de Mar, Spain

What a lazy day! Woke up, had breakfast, went back to bed until nearly 1pm since it was cloudy and raining. The afternoon forecast had sun written all over it so we decided to check out the next cove along the coast from where we are staying, called Cala Giverola. After about 20 minutes the sun came out blazing for the rest of the day!


(Looking back at Tossa de Mar during our drive toward Cala Giverola.)

Cala Giverola is a small cove that contains only a hotel (although it is a rather large hotel). The small parking lot has just enough for about 30 or so cars. It was nice to retreat from the crowds for a couple of hours.

We then drove back to Tossa de Mar to grab some food and be closer to our hotel (which is only a 15 minute drive). We spent some more time on the beach then decided it was time to clean up and see some more of the town that we missed the day before. We explored the church in town and some quaint narrow streets then searched for food.

We spent the rest of the evening hopping to restaurants and bars along the ocean front since this might be our last night in a beach town.
