Located in Blanes, on the Costa Brava, the Marimurtra Botanical Garden is one of the most beautiful gardens on the Mediterranean shore. On some cliffs that border the sea you can contemplate some of the most spectacular views of the coast and learn about more than four thousand plant species, most of them exotic, as well as a good number of extraordinary specimens due to their age or size. Marimurtra is the work of a man passionate about nature. Carl Faust (Hadamar, Germany 1874-Blanes 1952), businessman established in Catalonia, dedicated his illusion, his effort and all his heritage to the realization of his dream, the Marimurtra Botanical Garden.
