    Tossa de Mar, located on the Costa Brava, is renowned for its unique blend of medieval history and Mediterranean charm. The town's main landmark is the remarkably preserved 12th-century walled old town, Vila Vella. You can stroll along the impressive town walls and admire the seven defensive towers, which offer panoramic views over the sea and the bay. Inside Vila Vella, you'll discover winding alleys, the Municipal Museum, and the historic lighthouse. Beyond the fortress, the main beach, Platja Gran, invites you to relax, while the Roman villa dels Ametllers offers insights into the ancient past. To best experience the unique lighting and tranquility of the alleys, a visit in the early morning or late afternoon is recommended. The off-season, in spring or autumn, also offers a more pleasant climate and fewer visitors.
