Tossa de Mar has no train station; the closest rail is the Renfe regional at Maçanet-Massanes 30 km west by the GI-681. The Moventis bus (formerly Sarfa) runs the Lloret-Tossa-Sant Feliu-Girona corridor multiple times a day in summer and four to six times a day in winter, with a clear small-pet-in-carrier policy. Once in the village, the Vila Vella, the Passeig del Mar and the residential extensions are all walkable on a leash. The nearest airports are Girona-Costa Brava (GRO) 35 min west and Barcelona-El Prat (BCN) 1 h 30 south on the AP-7 motorway.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get to Tossa de Mar with a dog if I don`t have a car?

Two options. From Barcelona: take the Renfe regional to Maçanet-Massanes (1 h), then taxi 30 km north-east to Tossa. From Girona: take the Moventis bus directly to Tossa (1 h via Lloret de Mar). Small dogs in carriers travel free on both rail and bus; larger dogs are accepted on Renfe under the 2025 trial at 25 percent of the fare, on the bus at the driver`s discretion.

Can I drive to Tossa de Mar at night with a dog?

Yes, but the final 12 km GI-682 from Lloret to Tossa has switchbacks over the Cap de Tossa headland. Drive in daylight whenever possible, take the AP-7 motorway to the Lloret exit and descend the GI-682 carefully, and never at night-emergency speeds: better to call ahead and stop overnight in Lloret than to risk the switchbacks in a hurry.
