Tossa de Mar, Spain | Where the Ocean Stole My Heart
✨ Voted by National Geographic as one of the world's 25 most beautiful beaches 📺 Filming location for K-drama "The Legend of the Blue Sea" 🏰 Perfectly preserved medieval fortress walls 🌊 Jellyfish-Blue Waters Tossa's sea is a living turquoise—sunlight dances on waves like shimmering gelatin (see Fig. 4 for fish-spotting clarity!). We stayed overnight to: ☀️ Beat crowds at sunrise (no lines + waited for winds to blow clouds away) 🌬️ Chase moods—stroll the old town when windy, admire the sea when calm 🌇 Witness golden dawn to pink dusk—every second was magic 🚌 Easy Transport Direct bus from Barcelona Airport (13.5€, 1.5h, last return ~7PM) Pro tip: Book tickets online/at stations early 📝 Insider Tips 🧴 Sun + wind combo = deceptively mild (lather SPF!) ⛱️ Beach texture: Pebbly, not powdery—uniquely satisfying ☁️ "Jellyfish sea" only appears in full sun (but clouds part quickly!) 📸 Skip the crowded "Dragon's Hole"—the entire coastline is photogenic 🍽️ Dine seaside: Fresh seafood + endless blue views = pure bliss 📍 Tossa de Mar, Costa Brava #HiddenGemBeaches #BarcelonaDayTrips #SpainTravel
