This was our first full day near the town of Begur. Our caravan was fully stocked with provisions from the previous region so no need to perform any mad shop. We decided to take things easy (although that failed epically later in the day) and explore the area a little by car.

We drove to Flaca which has a direct train connection to Barcelona. We wanted to see what the parking will be like and to view the timetable. On this line Barcelona is served by three stations and the most central one which we will travel to is Barcelona – Passeig de Gracia. Service takes around an hour and a half on one of the medium fast trains.

We returned to Begur and headed down to Sa Tuna. A beautiful cove with the magnificent colour of the Mediterranean highlighted against the breath-taking coastal mountains. Our alternate agenda here was to assess the mountain path from Begur to Sa Tuna for a stroll one day. We decided it would be more than any stroll with hiking shoes a must.

 

Lunch was followed by a spot of sun bathing before we set off for a late afternoon walk to Fornells which takes about 20 minutes (down) and considerably longer back. It wasn’t helpful that we took a wrong turn and spent the first 30 minutes heading up the major trail to Begur.

 

Dinner was the most exquisite steak cooked to perfection on the Weber.
