Why does Rosas seduce us so much?
Whether you call it Rosas or Roses (its Catalan name), this Spanish seaside resort is very popular. Ideally located on the Costa Brava, it lies between the mountains and the sea (which is its main asset). Behind the town, you can see the heights of Cap Creus, a rich natural site classified as a protected reserve. Although the city is undergoing rapid urbanization, it has preserved its unspoilt natural beauty spots and picturesque corners.
What can you do in Rosas?
Rosas is a lively seaside resort. It offers a wide range of water sports. Sailing and catamarans are yours for the taking! Or why not take a kayak trip along the coast? If you're a keen sportsman, you might prefer to ride the waves on a surfboard, or try your hand at kitesurfing, water-skiing or hoverboarding. Get into the spirit of adventure and try something new on the water!
Always in the marine spirit, you can explore the Costa Brava on a motorboat or cruise ship. There are many ways to discover the Spanish coastline.
If you prefer to stay on dry land, there's nothing to stop you enjoying a leisurely stroll along the beach, on foot or by bike. You can also take the tourist train, which allows you to discover this seaside resort in complete tranquillity.
Last but not least, the Citadelle, built in the 16th century by Charles V to protect the town, is Roses' main landmark and a must-see!
