Culture, class and cocktails: let the destination of your hen weekend inspire you!

If the destination of your hen weekend is just as important as the activities, why not join your dear Aunty on a hen weekend to be treasured forever in beautiful Lloret de Mar?  We all know that traditionally a Spain hen weekend has been about dancing, drinking and dressing the poor hen up in some embarrassing home-made net-curtain veil covered in L-plates and male appendages, but I know that many of you ladies nowadays are looking for something a bit classier, something where you can actually appreciate your surroundings as well as all of the fabulous activities your bridesmaids have planned for you.

OK, so most of you are probably leaning more towards Zara Phillips' tutu-and-pink-wig-wearing weekend than Kate Middleton's low-key night in with friends (you do normally only have one hen weekend after all – you want to make it one to remember!), but why not experience the culture of your chosen destination while you're at it?  Here in Lloret de Mar, hen weekend expert Aunty can help to organise activities which will allow you to experience the culture of the Costa Brava.  For example, why not try our Paella and Sangria Masterclass?  You'll be taken to a typical Spanish restaurant to partake in an authentic Paella cooking demonstration.  Then, while your lunch is cooking, your traditional Sangria making class will begin.  Yum, what could be more culturally satisfying that immersing yourself in the local Catalan cuisine?

Similarly, if you choose to challenge your minds and your team-work skills, our Pirate Treasure Hunt is set against the picture perfect backdrop of the 12^th century walled village in Tossa de mar, an excellent way to take in the sights of the town and engage in an activity at the same time.  Or, if you'd rather get back to nature, our hen Horse Riding activity takes place in the woodlands of the Costa Brava, and our hen Scuba Diving activity means you'll be able to dive amongst stunning islets, islands, caves and reefs.

And once you're all cultured-out, we know that you're not adverse to the traditional pub-crawl normally associated with Costa Brava hen weekends, and maybe even a little fantasy man entertainment too!  Let Aunty organise it all for you; who said that culture was boring?!
