A walk through the history of Tossa de Mar
Tossa de Mar is one of those destinations that seems designed to make you fall in love. Its old quarter, the Vila Vella, is the only remaining fortified medieval town along the Catalan coast, and a stroll through it as a couple is an unforgettable experience. The narrow streets, the stone houses draped in flowers and the quiet corners invite you to walk leisurely, enjoying the company and the surroundings. It is a place that evokes ancient times and preserves the charm of past centuries intact.
The wall, with its seven well-preserved towers, such as the Torre d’en Joanàs and the Torre d’es Codolar, embrace the old town and lead up to Tossa Castle, from where the views of the sea are spectacular. Climbing up there, taking a photograph with your partner with the Mediterranean in the background or simply contemplating the horizon is an experience that will remain in your memory. Be sure to visit the Sa Roqueta neighbourhood, a small traditional fishing district, near Es Codolar beach.
Cap Roig Gardens and Santa Clotilde Gardens
Located in Calella de Palafrugell, the Cap Roig Gardens offer an idyllic setting where nature, art and history merge, creating the perfect setting for a romantic getaway. This botanical garden, which extends over an area of twenty hectares, is home to more than eight hundred plant species from different regions of the world with a Mediterranean climate.
A tour of the gardens reveals emblematic spots such as Cap Roig Castle, built in 1931 by the garden’s founders, Nicolai Woevodsky and Dorothy Webster. This main building, in neo-medieval style, together with the square fortified towers, gives the place a medieval air that invites you to dream. In addition, the Poblat, a group of white houses, complete with chapel, stables and dovecote, adds a picturesque touch to the surroundings.
On a cliff with privileged views of the Mediterranean in Lloret de Mar, you will find the Santa Clotilde Gardens, one of the most romantic and emblematic spaces on Costa Brava. Designed in the early 20th century by Nicolau Maria Rubió i Tudurí, these Italian Renaissance-inspired gardens offer a perfect blend of architecture, sculpture and nature, ideal for couples.

Mirador de S’Agaró: a balcony over the Mediterranean to share with your partner
Along the scenic Camí de Ronda as it passes through S’Agaró, the S’Agaró viewpoint, designed by Francesc Folguera, is one of those spots that seem designed for a romantic getaway. From here, the views of the sea and Sa Conca beach combine with a stately atmosphere, thanks to the classically-inspired gazebo that crowns the cliff. This small pavilion, surrounded by white columns, has become one of the most iconic and photogenic points along the route.
Walking along this path and stopping at this viewpoint at sunset is an experience that invites meditation, romanticism and contemplation. Ideal for couples, it is one of those places where time seems to stand still.
The Marimurtra Botanical Garden, in Blanes
On a cliff in Blanes, the Marimurtra Botanical Garden is another of the most romantic and emblematic spaces on the Costa Brava. Founded by the German businessman Carl Faust at the beginning of the 20th century, this garden is home to more than 4,000 plant species from all corners of the planet, many of them exotic or tropical.
One of its most famous spots is the Temple of Linné, a small, classical lookout point with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean.
This vantage point has become one of the most photographed spots and a must for those looking for an intimate moment with their partner. Blending science, landscape artistry and natural beauty, Marimurtra is a serene setting for a romantic escape.
Sunset on the high seas: an unforgettable plan in Palamós
Another of the most romantic plans that we highlight on Costa Brava is to enjoy a boat trip at sunset off the coast of Palamós, an experience designed to connect with the sea and with your partner. The trip departs from the port of Palamós and takes in some of the most emblematic coves in the area, such as La Fosca, El Castell and Cap Roig, while the sun slowly descends over the Mediterranean. The tour ends in the direction of Calella de Palafrugell, one of the most picturesque and charming coastal towns on the Costa Brava. During the tour, you can enjoy a glass of cava, the perfect way to toast to love.
The hidden coves of Sant Feliu de Guíxols
If you want to get lost together in small natural paradises far from the hustle and bustle, the hidden coves of Sant Feliu de Guíxols are an unbeatable choice. Cala del Peix, Cala d’es Cranc and Cala dels Mussols are some of the jewels to be discovered along the Camí de Ronda, a coastal path that offers unforgettable landscapes.
