About Castle of Sant Joan
Costa Brava
The Castle of Sant Joan is an historic fortress located on a hilltop that offers stunning views of the town, the surrounding coastline, and the Mediterranean Sea. The castle was built in the 11th century to protect the town from pirate attacks and invasions, and it has since become a symbol of Lloret de Mar’s medieval heritage. The castle features a small watchtower, remnants of the original walls, and a defensive moat, making it an interesting spot for history and architecture enthusiasts. Though the structure is not fully intact, the panoramic views it offers are one of its main attractions. You can enjoy sweeping vistas of Lloret de Mar, Cala Banys, and the surrounding beaches from the castle’s elevated position. The Castle of Sant Joan is located near the town centre, making it an easily accessible destination for tourists. It is a popular stop for those walking the coastal path or hiking through the area, and its scenic surroundings make it a great spot for photography.
