Whether you're looking for sandy beaches, rocky coves, tranquil villages or mountain scenery, Spain's Costa Brava has something to offer you. Situated in the north-east of the country overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the Costa Brava region enjoys hot summers and mild winters, making it an all-year-round holiday destination. You don't have to stay in a pricey, cramped hotel, however. Consider the low-cost alternative of a rental property by the beach or in the heart of the countryside. You and your family will have more space and freedom, and a fully equipped kitchen will allow you to prepare your own meals rather than eating out every day.

There are plenty of opportunities in the Costa Brava to play golf, tennis or football, as well as to take part in water sports. The Sant Daniel Valley on the western side of the Gavarres hills has mountain biking and trekking paths with stunning views. If you are looking for a cultural activity, the Archeological Museum in Banyoles is housed in a Gothic palace and has displays of paleontology and pottery as well as archeology. Modern art lovers must not miss the Theatre Museum in Figueres which has a collection of Salvador Dali's paintings. At the end of the day, if you still have some energy, there is no shortage of nightlife in towns such as Lloret de Mar.

If a sandy beach is what you're looking for, Platja de Fenals has a beautiful one, and there are others at Canadell, Sa Riera, Tamariu and Calella de Palafrugell. Santa Pere Pescador, on the other hand, is the ideal place for water sports, flying kites and hiring a boat or catamaran. Why not take a trip in a glass-bottomed boat from the ports of Cap de Creus or L'Estartit to the rocky islets of Illes Medes? Teenagers looking for action could take a moped or quadbike trip in the countryside surrounding Tossa del Mar. The whole family will be sure to enjoy a visit to one of the waterparks, such as Aquadiver at Platja D'Aro. Water World near Lloret del Mar offers hours of fun with water slides, wave pools, river rafting and the world's tallest bungy tower.
