Activities

This family activity holiday is perfect for beach lovers with many of the activities taking place on the local beach, making the most of the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea. Activities here are delivered by our qualified team and include a range of beach watersports including kayaking, snorkelling, windsurfing, paddleboarding and banana boating. For an extra charge, you can also have a go at sailing, or do a dive taster session. We also put on archery and climbing sessions here and include a day at Waterworld, Europe's largest waterpark and a day trip to Barcelona if you are travelling by coach.

This is the ideal holiday for families looking for a beach holiday that combines a range of exciting water sport activities with a day at the waterpark and a spot of culture in Barcelona.

Activities will take place with some of the other British families staying at our private section of this holiday complex, so you and your children will have plenty of opportunity to meet other like-minded families, as well as have your own family time when you choose.

Our staff put on evening entertainment, ensuring there is plenty to do all day and night!

Activities here are suited to age 7+

Please note that the sample programme (below) is changing for 2019 and will now include banana boating (instead of sailing). Sailing will be available as an optional extras for families who would like to try this activity (weather permitting).

Sample Programme:

Mediterranean Adventure Camp

Set within a private zone of the Spanish Cala Llevado holiday complex, our private cabin accommodation offers your family your own private en-suite cabin with proper beds, wardrobe, sink, fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. Close by to your cabin, will be other like-minded families from the UK.

The holiday complex is located between Tossa de Mar and Lloret de Mar in the Costa Brava region of Spain.

Boasting excellent facilties, the complex offers a large swimming pool, bar/restaurant, pizzeria, shop, crazy golf, a 5 a side football pitch and weekly open air disco. 

Each cabin is laid out slightly differently. To find out more about the configurations, please speak to a member of our office team. 

Our prices are based on a minimum of 4 people sharing a cabin. Families travelling with less than 4 people will be asked to pay a £90pp supplement for exclusive use of a cabin. This charge will be applied after booking online, or during your booking over the telephone. If you are a family with less than 4 travelling and don't wish to pay a supplement, none of our other destinations have accommodation supplements and so you may wish to consider a holiday in France, Italy or the UK.

Meals

Meals are served in the on-site canteen, or al fresco by the pool and are served buffet style meaning there is plenty to choose from, even the most fussy eater. When you are doing activities down at the beach, our friendly team will serve you lunch, so there is no need to go back to the complex- more time on the beach! A packed lunch is provided for the day at the waterpark and Barcelona.

What’s nearby?

Lloret de Mar and Tossa de Mar are the nearest towns, with plenty to see and do. There is a bus stop outside of the complex if you wish to go off and explore by yourselves. Drinks and snacks can be purchased on-site should you need additional refreshments. The beach is within walking distance down a steep hill (which some find challenging on the way back), but it’s worth the walk, we promise!

Coach Holiday

We understand that travelling as a family can sometimes be stressful so we take the stress away by organising your travel. It means no hassle of having to arrive 3hrs earlier at the airport, it’s perfect for children and removes the extra trouble of excess baggage or lugging suitcases around the airport. We provide a comfortable coach with air conditioning, DVD player and WC which stays with you for the duration of your holiday. We make travelling fun - as an added bonus, a lovely sense of camaraderie among our families always starts to form during the journey and kids would be best of friends by the time they get to the holiday complex. The journey to Cala Llevado takes approximately 18 hours from Calais allowing for rest breaks and a breakfast stop. Your outbound ferry crossing will be timed so that you can purchase a meal on the ferry, or some choose to take a packed dinner with them.

Coach pick up points:

• Manchester Piccadilly Train Station
• Birmingham International Railway Station
• London Victoria Coach Station
• Dover

Please let us know your preferred pick up time when booking your holiday and we will send you all the timings once we have confirmed the ferry crossing so you can finalise your arrangements.

Self-Drive/Fly-drive Holiday

If you are flying to Barcelona Girona (the nearest airport), you can get public transport or a taxi to the Cala Llevado. Once you are at the complex, all activities are within walking distance and so no car is required. Waterworld can be accessed by bus. However, for ease and a little more independence you may wish to hire a car at the airport.

If using your own vehicle, you will only need to use it for your day trip to Waterworld (unless you wish to get the bus), and on your free day if you wish to explore further afield such as Barcelona, only an hour and a half drive away.
