Estartit is one of the most popular areas of the Costa Brava for campers. With a choice of campsites ranging from in size, a long sandy beach and plenty to keep the family occupied day and night, Estartit makes a perfect choice for your summer holidays.
The town has been popular with holidaymakers since the 1960s, thanks to the beach. Once a sleepy fishing village, the town expanded significantly with holiday villas, apartment buildings and a handful of hotels built after the onset of the tourist boom. But it the flat terrain around the town also makes it ideal for campsites.
