A fantastic all-day excursion along the beautiful Costa Daurada coastline aboard the most modern luxury catamaran on the Mediterranean, sailing to the traditional village of L' Ametlla de Mar. The food option includes a delicious barbecue prepared by your captain and crew, and also includes sangria and dessert too. On arrival you will have free time to explore the morning market and visit the local shops, where you can buy some local products and souvenirs. Shopping in L´ Ametlla de Mar is a lovely pastime, where you can walk through its narrow and bustling streets, visiting little shops and boutiques. A great way to spend your day, or if you prefer, you can choose to relax on the beautiful sandy beach instead. Filled with lovely coves and blue flag beaches, L’Ametlla de Mar is an unspoilt fishing town on the Costa Daurada, Catalonia. With quaint whitewashed buildings that watch over the sea and its beautiful shades of blue and green waves lapping up against the light golden sand, L´ Ametlla de Mar is a very pretty picture.
