About Girona

At first glance, the diversity of the beaches of the Girona does not have a prominent distinctive feature. There is no clear predominance of mountain landscapes or crystal sea, on the contrary, everything seems balanced. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the flow of tourists continues to grow from year to year.

Latest reviews on Girona's beaches

Platja del Borro
8 Grayson

winds, relentless waves, and a seemingly never-ending stretch of sand, this beach is the perfect place for an adventure. This beach is a haven for thrill-seekers, with its wild winds, towering waves, and seemingly never-ending shoreline. Whether you're looking for a peaceful stroll along the shore or an adrenaline-filled day of surfing, this beach has something for everyone. So grab your board and get ready for some serious fun!

Platja de Fenals
6 Holly Thompson

This place is simply stunning! It's very clean and clear waters make it the perfect spot for parasailing, pedaloing, banana boat rides, or even day trips to other resorts. During peak season, it's likely to be quite busy, but that doesn't take away from its beauty. Plus, it's easy to access, so you can quickly and easily enjoy all that it has to offer. Whether you're looking to relax or stay active, this beach has it all!

Cala Belladona
1 POY P

The municipalities of Playa d'Aro and Calonge have allowed dogs to come to this small cove, without measuring the consequences of it... This beautiful beach has become a nightmare, dogs are let loose, they bark, run everywhere in small groups with very lax supervision from the owners. They defecate everywhere. This place is becoming very unsanitary because in addition to dog droppings, the access is invaded by the rubbish of the hotel above which maintains its garbage containers very badly.

La Fosca beach
8 Abel Crofton

The beach had a great sandy shoreline. When we arrived, it was quite crowded, but there was still plenty of space on the beach and to swim in the sea. The waters were shallow, making it ideal for paddling. Snorkeling was great too, with plenty of fish to spot. Parking was easy to find and inexpensive (€3 for the day). There were also a few places to get food and drinks from on the beach, which we highly recommend.

Portitxol Beach
8 Aria Z W

This beach is a peaceful and beautiful spot with a few sandy beaches, a restaurant, and a couple of bars. Parking costs 1.50 euros per hour, but you can park for free in the residential area just a 10-minute walk away.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 26 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!

Finding hotels in relative proximity to the beaches is usually fine. Many beaches have enough nearby accommodation, which gives good opportunities to choose the right place to stay.

The hottest month of the region is July - air temperature during this time warms up to 29.1°C and water up to 23.3°C in August. The coldest month is January - air temperature drops to 11.6°C and water to 13.6°C.
