Latest reviews on Girona's beaches

Platja del Borro

8 Martina Tomas

This beach is a paradise, boasting golden sand and crystal-clear waters. It's the perfect spot to relax and soak up some sun. The scenery is simply stunning, and the atmosphere is unbeatable. Whether you're looking for a romantic escape or a fun-filled family day out, this beach is sure to exceed your expectations.

Platja de Fenals

6 Maciej Jankowski

This location on Costa Brava is truly the best! If you're looking for a beach destination in Lloret de Mar, Fenals district is a great choice as it's much quieter than the city center. Plus, it has a great Xaloc restaurant, a clean beach and nice walking routes - and it's easily accessible too!

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.

Platja Rovellada

La Fosca beach La Fosca

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.

Torre Valentina beach Platja de Torre Valentina

6 Anelys Llorens

A great experience, that's for sure. If you're looking for a place to relax and take in some sun, this is the spot. Nothing quite beats the feeling of sand between your toes and the smell of the ocean in the air. If you're seeking a spot to chill and soak up some rays, this is it. Nothing quite compares to the sensation of the sand beneath your feet and the salty sea breeze. A truly unforgettable experience!

Please note that lifeguards supervise 31 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!
