Not sure yet? A gourmet destination? A relaxing spot on the beach? Maybe somewhere mountainous where the summertime temperatures are more pleasant? It\u2019s normal to be unsure about where to go, and there is no shortage of places on the map. We also know when you already have one of these options in mind, it\u2019s hard to give it a miss. Nobody wants to give something up, do they?<\/p>\n<p>Well Camping in Girona has a newsflash, just for you. We know a place where you can go, one that lets you do everything we\u2019ve been talking about. Everything you need on a holiday is there: the world\u2019s best cuisine, idyllic beaches, mountains and hills, medieval towns and cities, a superb climate, affordable destinations&#8230; Hard to believe, isn\u2019t it? Well, that&rsquo;s not all. The best part is how close it all is: the beach, the mountains and the city! Want to know what we\u2019re talking about? The province of Girona!<\/p>\n<p>Girona is in the easternmost part of Catalonia and Spain, with the Pyrenees mountains straddling the French border to the north and the Costa Brava lapped by the Mediterranean Sea to the east. The superb Mediterranean climate has shaped a wondrous, film-like landscape, but it has also borne fruit of another nature: the gastronomy. The wide variety of top-quality natural products has helped develop a unique cuisine, evidenced by the region\u2019s countless restaurants, one of which has been selected as the world\u2019s best restaurant on two occasions: El Celler de Can Roca.<\/p>\n<p>We began with an overview of where and what Girona is. Let\u2019s now take a more detailed look as specific activities you can do if you opt for a holiday at a campsite in Girona.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Beach:<\/strong> if what you\u2019re seeking is relaxing on the beach and taking a dip in the waters of the Mediterranean, you\u2019ll find it on the Costa Brava. Miles and miles of coastline where you\u2019ll find anywhere from tiny coves all to yourself to larger beaches side by side with surfers and families. Crystal-clear seas make snorkelling a spectacular experience, as the calm waters provide a perfect view of the sea bed. We recommend the coves of Tossa de Mar, which look straight out of a travel magazine, or the beach of Sant Pere de Rodes, which hosts various international kite and windsurfing events, among other water sports.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2372\" style=\"width: 754px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2372\" class=\" wp-image-2372\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/inspirat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/platja-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"Platja Aiguablava - Begur\" width=\"744\" height=\"494\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-2372\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Arxiu imatges PTCG&nbsp;<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Great food<\/strong>: Mediterranean cooking is undoubtedly one of the best in the world. What\u2019s more, Girona expertly combines locally-grown fresh and natural ingredients with a world-class wine-making tradition. Seafood and fried fish with a glass of white wine whilst lounging on a small terrace in a coastal village on a summer&rsquo;s afternoon&#8230; you can get used to it! Nor can you leave without having a typical Catalan breakfast: bread rubbed with tomato and the finest cured meats. Delicious!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-2375\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/inspirat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/vi-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"743\" height=\"495\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Walking and cycling trips:<\/strong> Girona has a lovely collection of trails that link the beach and the mountains, the city and the countryside&#8230; Distances are so short you can get around by bike or even on foot. If you also happen to be at a campsite in the Pyrenees, you can do some hiking along winter ski trails, where the views are unbeatable.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-2378\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/inspirat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/caminar-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"743\" height=\"495\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Museums:<\/strong> if you\u2019re keen on art, archaeology or architecture, Girona is also the right place for you. The province\u2019s most renowned artist is none other than Salvador Dal\u00ed, born in Figueres in 1904. It is in this city where we find the Dal\u00ed Theatre-Museum, the museum containing the largest number of the artist\u2019s original works, while in Port Lligat we can visit the house where he lived with his wife Gala. Another option is the castle the painter from Empord\u00e0 gave to his wife, located in the small town of P\u00fabol. If you prefer architecture or history, you\u2019ll surely enjoy the Greco-Roman city of Emp\u00faries, one of the best-preserved sites of that epoch.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-2381\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/inspirat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Ruines-300x192.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"741\" height=\"474\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sport<\/strong>: if you are into doing sport while on holiday, Girona will suit you to a tee, whether it\u2019s kayaking in the Medes Isles or wind or kitesurfing in Sant Pere Pescador. Perhaps you\u2019re more of a mountain person and prefer some mountain biking or scaling a peak in the Pyrenees. You also have the option of jogging along the promenade in Palam\u00f3s or Sant Feliu de Gu\u00edxols, or completing a cycling stage along the gorgeous Tossa de Mar highway. Yet another option is a round of golf at one of the more than 25 courses dotted around the province, or go-kart racing in L\u2019Escala. And much, much more!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-2384\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/inspirat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/paddle-surf-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"paddle surf\" width=\"739\" height=\"490\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Town\/city excursions<\/strong>: once again, there\u2019s plenty to see, from white-washed coastal villages such as Cadaqu\u00e9s or Begur, to the Jewish quarter of Girona, where part of the series Game of Thrones was shot, by the way. We can also head to inland villages such as Monells or Madremanya, or explore the towns of the Pyrenees, such as Camprodon.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10092 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/girona-eiffel-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/girona-eiffel-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/girona-eiffel-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/girona-eiffel-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/campingsingirona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/girona-eiffel.jpg 1680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, Girona has a thousand faces, making this region a perfect place to spend a holiday.
