The town is an hour away from the Girona airport, reached with rental car or pre-arranged shuttle. Once in L'Estartit, most attractions are within walking distance. So set your clock to GMT+1 and explore all of the natural beauty and water sports on offer.

Discover L’Estartit

With its warm hospitality and natural beauty, L’Estartit holidays offer the ideal summer vacation. Vacationing families are drawn to the expansive sands and lively atmosphere of Main Beach, opposite the town centre. Nearby is L’Estartit's restaurant district, where the cuisine is renowned for its fresh ingredients and innovative Catalan and Mediterranean influences. The more secluded Platja de Griells beach lies near the Vell Natural reserve, where visitors can fish or relax in peace, or hike along flourishing nature walks to see striking views of the Spanish coast. Water sports lovers should check out Platja Gran, which provides pedal boats, water skiing, kayaks, sailing school, and windsurfing. Take a boat to explore the Illes Medes islands or the coves of Montgri coast – the place to be for L’Estartit holidays. Snorkelling or diving is the best way to appreciate the outstanding marine life, both above and under water. The daring might like to try cliff-diving, but travellers will be just as thrilled strolling along the beachside promenade at sunset.
