Let me preface these discoveries by saying that I ended up in Calella haphazardly. It is not necessarily a town that I would generally recommend. It is not your traditional Spanish/Catalan dream destination. It very much looks like something the 70's spit out and no one ever bothered to clean up.

With that said, I freaking love this little freakish town, which I quickly & affectionately nicknamed "The Twilight Zone."

The strangest occurrences happened throughout the month, yes MONTH, I lived in Calella.

Apparently since the 70's, Calella, was a booming tourist destination for Western Europeans and the British. It has been on a massive decline over the past decade. What's left behind though are some fun Dutch and English/Irish pubs, a small welcoming expat community, and one of the most incredible beaches you will ever lay your eyes on.

Beautiful clean white sand for miles and crystal clear turquoise water. Parties & bars on the beach, some free concerts in the summer time and of course drinking it allowed as well.

If you happen to find yourself here, you must stop in at Beach Boys Club, tell the owners, Brian & Cathy, that Amber sent you. Then hit up Brian for his secret stash of American imported Budweiser (Did you know the bottled stuff is always produced in country? Brian believes the secrets in the water, so he gets the cans from the US. Brian is British, which makes this little story even better.)

Also, be prepared to eat a lot of rotisserie chicken.

«Friendly owner. Plenty of space for all 11 of us.We spent most of our time either in the pool, the outdoor kitchen or on the balcony. The family range a from 4 to 60s and we all really enjoyed our time here. Albert told us that the area around the gas station and he was not wrong. We even had to use the car repair place which we can recommend.An added bonus for us was visits from a ginger cat we named Skippy/Skipper/Skipdog. He became quite friendly by the end of our holiday.»

6/10 Greit

"Rom 522 fint pusset opp, men dør inn til rom er ikke isolert, hørte alt fra gangen. Aircondition slo seg av når vi lå stille om natta. Da luktet det kloakk. Det blåste også direkte på oss i senga. Knirkelyder fra senga. Ikke god søvn dessvere"
