More than a festival: an experience in Girona and the Costa Brava

Participating in Sea Otter Europe is not only about experiencing one of the largest cycling festivals in Europe: it is also a unique opportunity to discover Girona and the Costa Brava, a dream destination for lovers of sports, nature, and culture.

Girona, with its historic old town, cobbled streets, and medieval walls, invites you to lose yourself in its charming corners. Strolling through el Barri Vell, crossing the iconic Pont de les Peixateries Velles designed by Eiffel, or enjoying the local cuisine are just some of the essential experiences.

A few kilometers away, the Costa Brava displays spectacular landscapes: hidden coves, cliffs, seaside towns, and coastal routes perfect for cycling or walking. Towns such as Cadaqués, Calella de Palafrugell, Begur, and Tossa de Mar combine sea, mountains, and tradition in an incomparable natural environment.
