La Fosca is a beach in the Mediterranean Costa Brava, located in the comarca of Baix Empordà, in the province of Girona, Catalonia, Spain. La Fosca is between Palamós and Cala S'Alguer.

train trip to Llançà, Costa Brava

here's a little travel vlog from our train trip from Figueres to Llançà, a little coastal town on the Costa Brava in Catalonia Spain. The train takes about 15 mins, it's one stop, about 3 euros. When you arrive at the train station in Llançà, you have to walk about 10-15 mins to get to the beach. There you will find a hill that you can climb up on and see the spectacular views of the coast. Well worth a visit. Then you can have a drink or a meal at one of the bars along the beach.
Keep in mind though that this area is famous for the Tramuntana which is an extremely strong wind. It can be pleasant in summer, but not the rest of the year. You might want to check the weather forecast before you go, or bundle up (not in summer of course).

As you can tell from the video, dogs are allowed on all trains in Spain. We took the slow train and thus didn't have to use a carrier or muzzle, or buy a ticket.
