<p>Modernisme a Canet, bressol de Domènech Montaner</p>

Let yourself be captivated by the trencadís mosaic and wrought iron you will find in the regions of Barcelona. From the bourgeois towers of La Garriga to the renovation of Santa Florentina Castle in Canet de Mar, six Art Nouveau tours bring you closer to an art form that sought to turn every detail into a work of art. While recalling renowned masters such as Domènech i Montaner and Puig i Cadafalch, but also lesser-known modernist architects such as Joaquim Manuel Raspall, each facade is a reminder of the splendour of a bygone era that still makes you stop and look up. A journey full of mosaics and colour that turns any walk into a unique experience

<p>La roca grossa de Calella</p>

Sometimes the sea cries out, and all you can do is listen. The waves speak to you and urge you to put on your trainers and walk slowly, with the breeze playing with your hair and the smell of salt filling your lungs. These six tours overlooking the sea invite you to roam around ancient castles that have watched over the coast for centuries, among cliffs that plunge into the endless blue and trails that lead you to explore hidden corners. It is time to unwind, leave the noise behind and immerse yourself in the calm that only the sea can provide. Your coastal adventure starts right here.
