The apartments share an underground garage, with a designated parking space for our apartment.

Distances
The nearby town of Palafrugell, just a few kilometres away, and to which there is a bus service in high season, has a selection of supermarkets and vegetable, fruit, meat and fish markets every day except Monday. On Sunday, there is a very large and colourful market in the streets off the main square selling all the normal produce, often from small ‘cottage garden’ growers, plus shoes, leather, lace etc..
The main town square of Palafrugell offers a choice of open-air cafes to rest and enjoy.

Further details
Tamariu is a small unspoilt fishing village with a lovely sandy beach in the heart of a beautiful stretch of Spanish coastline. The rocky cliffs and small beaches, typical of this area, have kept the developers and large tour operators away. There are no high-rise hotels, no ‘English’ pubs or discos here. The first language of the area is Catalan rather than Spanish. However, basic English is understood by many locals. The main beach at Tamariu is extremely clean and nearly all sand. The water is crystal clear and ideal for swimming and snorkelling. The beach shelves at a fairly gentle angle and is safe for children. It is possible to hire small boats, canoes and pedalos. There is a scuba diving club on the sea-front. Coastal paths provide excellent opportunities for scenic walks and to visit the numerous coves. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants and bars especially on the waterfront and in the village centre, which offer a good selection of food and drink at reasonable prices. On Saturday nights in July and August there are often musicians and entertainers playing on the promenade.

In Tamariu, there is one large grocery shop that sells almost everything, including fresh meat. For fresh bread and pastries, visit the patisserie situated halfway up the narrow street that leads from the middle of the beach. Fresh fruit and vegetables are always in plentiful supply.
