7 ideas to fill your summer on the Costa Brava

Those who know it know that during the summer months the Costa Brava offers much more than beaches. Festivals, unique natural spaces, gastronomy... are some of the infinite possibilities that await us between genista, towns with white houses and cliffs.

For this reason, at Club Vanguardia, we have made a summer selection of ideas for touring the Costa Brava and enjoying the exclusive discounts offered by the Club card.

We start our tour in Blanes, considered the "Gateway to the Costa Brava", where we find the Marimurtra Botanical Garden. Created almost 100 years ago, this garden with more than 4,000 plant species hides inside the Temple of Linné, an iconic architectural monument that offers spectacular views over the Mediterranean. Get your ticket to Marimurtra with a 30% discount every day, thanks to Club Vanguardia. Discover the botanical garden of the Costa Brava!

Another of the great natural spaces that we find on the Costa Brava is the Castell de Cap Roig in Calella de Palafrugell. Its 17 hectares of extension, full of nature and close to the sea, make it an idyllic spot that from July 14 to 19 becomes the setting for the Cap Roig Festival. An opportunity to vibrate with national and international artists such as Sebastián Yatra, Pablo López, Dàmaris Gelabert, Pablo Alborán, Lola Índigo or David Bisbal, among many others, with a 10% discount on admission thanks to Club Vanguardia. Do not miss tickets!

Every summer, for 61 years, the Porta Ferrada Festival is one of the essential events on the Costa Brava. Until next August 20, more than 40 shows will pass through Sant Feliu de Guíxols with names such as: Ludovico Einaudi, Jorge Drexler, Jethro Trull, Mishima, Niña Pastori or Ismael Serrano. A program that also includes classical music in the Monastery Church. Consult dates and buy your tickets with a 15% discount with the Club Vanguardia card. Buy your tickets now!

If we talk about classics from the Costa Brava we must travel to Cadaqués. Boia Nit by Manel Vehí has ​​been a landmark of Cadaque life since 1946, through which Salvador Dalí, Josep Pla, Gabriel García Márquez, Jean Nouvel and Kirk Douglas have passed. A "chiringuito" on the beach where you will be surprised by the proposals of Manel Vehí, winner of the Gin Mare Mediterranean international cocktail championship and author of more than 150 cocktails together with the Adrià brothers, José Andrés and chef Grant Achatz at The Aviary (Chicago). He shakes the shaker and enjoys his creations this summer with a 20% discount every day on cocktails, a la carte and menus with the Club Vanguardia card.

Or to climb the trees of the Bosc del Mas Candell, to enjoy the activities of the Bosc de les Tirolines, a perfect multi-adventure space to spend a day with the family, with a 20% discount on activities with your Club card.
