Strawberry Season in Calella
Enjoy the Maresme strawberry season throughout May at Hotel Bernat II
With the arrival of May comes one of the most anticipated times for local producers and lovers of seasonal fruit: the strawberry season in Maresme. This fruit, mainly grown in towns like Calella, has become one of the region’s most representative products during spring.
The mild climate, proximity to the sea, and agricultural tradition of the area have made Maresme a key region for strawberry cultivation. During these weeks, it is common to find this product in markets, restaurants, and homes, in many different formats and preparations.
Strawberries are not only eaten fresh. In recent years, their use in the kitchen has increased, also appearing in savoury dishes or cold recipes typical of this time of year. Some of the most common preparations include desserts, jams, and more recent creations like strawberry gazpacho or sauces that accompany main courses.
These kinds of recipes allow visitors to discover new ways to enjoy a simple product closely linked to the region’s identity.
Hotel Bernat II joins the strawberry season
This year, at Hotel Bernat II, we have decided to include this local product in our gastronomic offer throughout the month of May. Every weekend, from May 3rd to June 1st, our buffet restaurant will feature fresh local strawberries and a selection of dishes made with this fruit.
Among the proposals are desserts, both strawberries from Maresme with light cream and an assortment of strawberries with cream, strawberry gazpacho and other recipes that will vary over the weeks. Our aim is to give guests the chance to discover and taste a local product that is part of the agricultural and culinary life of Maresme.
If you’re planning a short break during the month of May, this could be a great time to visit Maresme. In addition to its beaches, promenades and nearby natural areas, this season offers a great opportunity to get to know one of the area’s most iconic products.
Staying at Hotel Bernat II during this period also allows you to enjoy the experience directly at the hotel buffet, without any need for extra planning or travel.
Book your holiday at Hotel Bernat II and enjoy the season with us!
