Blanes to Pineda de Mar.

Coming to this area of Spain just north of Barcelona was a bit of a recky. To basically look at different places. If we are heading quite far south we tend to do a long drive from the Spanish \ French border all the way down to Alcossebre and then on to Javea or Mazarron, so this area constitutes a stopping off place. We could have stuck a pin in the map for our next resort but I was feeling a bit more calculated so looked at the web sites and reviews. Camping Enmar looked a good place and how right I was. Situated next to the town and 100yds from the beach it is also about 400 yds from a train station that takes you into the middle of Barcelona, so the next time we visit when its cooler we'll try that one. Its also about a twenty minute walk to Callela, a typical Costa Brava tourist hotspot where there is a mile long shopping street, lots of bars and supermarkets.
The promenade at Pineda is quite attractive and you can go on long walks or cycle rides in each direction along tree lined flat pathways. We arrived here on Monday 17th and aim to stay only two nights before heading to the Pyrannees and then into France. Generally the weather has been ideal for us with Jonesy as I would say that the temps have been consistently around 23c, a bit cool for Spain but its really starting to heat up now so we are best heading to a potentially cooler France.
