Anna Carbó has been rowing along the Costa Brava for half her life. When she was 12, she joined the Es Pescadors rowing club in Lloret de Mar. "It was the natural path because my friends from the club also started joining," she recalls. Now she's the president and helmsman of the senior men's team. These last few weeks, they've had more training than usual. On the emblematic Sa Caleta beach, at the foot of the unmistakable Plaja castle, tourists mingle with tradition as they unload the traditional Catalan llagut to put it into the sea. It's the preamble to the The day that the people of Lloret reclaim the beach from tourists in the middle of summer: July 24th, Santa Cristina, their patron saint. And also the confirmation of the rowing fever that exists in Lloret de Mar. A total of nine entities coexist, making it the municipality in Catalonia with the most rowing clubs per inhabitant.
