Tossa de Mar, located on the Costa Brava coastline, is one of the few towns along this stretch that has retained its medieval charm while at the same time welcomed tourists with open arms. Dominated by its 12th century battlements (Vila Vella), which stand proud on a promontory guarding the main town and beach, the town of Tossa de Mar is a favourite spot for purchasers of Spanish property, whether they are looking for a second home or rental property.
Tossa de Mar has a very quaint feel to it that harks back to its fishing community days. Even the newer Spanish property along the beaches are sympathetic to this ambience - apartments, villas and low-rise hotels displaying a united whitewash colour scheme.
The coastline along Tossa de Mar is nothing short of spectacular. Craggy inlets and rocky promontories covered with pines and vegetation combine with bays of sandy beaches to offer all who take a walk along the shoreline a visual feast. The beaches are generally very busy during the summer, but quieter through the other seasons of the year. Also, being only 98kms north of Barcelona, and 40kms east of Girona, Tossa de Mar is well-placed for visitors and residents who wish to explore the region's two main cities.
There is a wide range of Tossa de Mar property available for purchasers to choose from. Apartments, villas, cottages and town houses make up the bulk of offerings within the town itself, and along the beachfront. Further out on the surrounding hills Tossa de Mar property becomes more exclusive. Your dream villa in Spain is just waiting to be discovered amongst those hillside pines of Tossa de Mar!
