Gay Cruising Spots Portland, Oregon

hiking in Tossa, and Cadiretes

Even if the water is still too cold for swimming, and nature is already fully awake, there are few who come to Tossa to wander around here. And, although there are proportionally far more nature and hiking trails as quiet beaches.

Numerous hiking trails in Tossa de Mar you to discover the wonders of nature or have a long history Tossa rise again. Chapels, hermitages, Iberian settlements, caves and standing stones just waiting to be discovered.

But nature lovers get to the course, except for numerous medicinal plants and also many species of Mediterranean plants, the nature of Tossa also another miracle at hand, because the mountains of Tossa, the Cadiretes combine several ecological systems, which means that one can find in Tossa except the southern vegetation and plants that are otherwise only the Atlantic are home.

But a slightly longer walk in Parc de Sa Riera provides insight on the adaptability of nature, for here meet plant the brackish water need plants that grow on river banks and the Mediterranean vegetation. The unique irrigation system of the park allowed the recovery of water to allow the natural a new life.

It's a shame that this site Tossa in secret lives and the many visitors do not use it.

A quiet cove for a swim in Tossa

Tossa de Mar boasts 19 beaches, at least on the plans. How can however find all of these beaches have to burn then brown in a quiet corner? Again in theory, it is sufficient from to put up just in the car and then to sail to these many beaches, as only four of them in the catchment area of pedestrians are living directly in Tossa. Where one of the four beaches, more a towel comes closer than a beach.

we leave now, therefore, the theory and come to some sad reality. Since the beach line accessible to all must remain, one has of course the chance to rent a boat to pay for his dream beach to visit. Paddling can however be a little exhausting because of the distance, a small motorboat that can be rented in the nearby area there is something more practical.

And then of course there is the possibility to drive perhaps a slightly dangerous parking lot to look at the winding road and approach on foot the "secret" beaches. But why on foot after it but roads are? The question is easily answered. The owners of the villas have up to 2 km away from the attached beach barriers, the only be opened for residents, but not for tourists.

As the beaches now are not even at the height of the main road, but are up to 150 meters deep, at the Mediterranean level, had just remains the small foot with subsequent ascent as the only solution, apart from the boat . Maybe the whole thing is not so legally and logically, that tourists with their local tax also must pay the protection of villas, but only the city of Tossa has the right to ban these barriers to its visitors a free beach access be granted.

take the sardines to the grave

Each country has their special traditions to Ash Wednesday and said the Carnival in a different way "until next year." In Spain, one can almost say that every place has its own method of the Carnival "bury". Together, the English have all the places that they buried a sardine, even when buried is not the right word, because in most cases, the (artificial) Sardine publicly burned after her and the king made Carnival of the process and then the verdict is announced. But there are also places where the sardines will be thrown into the sea or beheaded. in Tossa de Mar, the sardine of children who are dressed as death, carried through the city to become public to be burned. The event says farewell to the carnival and thus initiates the 40-day fast. This last parade ends up at the road Jacint Verdaguer with hot chocolate and a cake that will appeal not only to small children.
