A new concept of family holidays in the heart of the Costa Brava: nature, beach, shopping, activities, leisure and culture are fused together to offer an extensive range of services. A Family Tourism Destination where you can enjoy endless beaches, small coves and coastal paths, to discover and delight; where the city becomes an open-air shopping centre, and where a whole array of ideal holiday activities await you: hiking and mountain biking, bird watching in ‘Parc dels Estanys’ (Park of the Lakes), dramatised tours, Mini Club children’s play area on the beach, workshops, fairs, miniature train rides, annual summer festivals, the Dolls Museum and the ‘Xalaro’ family entertainment festival, etc. as well as cinemas, amusement parks, bowling, a water park and dozens of sports centres, parks and gardens with children’s play areas, where you can play, walk and relax.
Platja d’Aro is one of the tourist towns par excellence in Baix Empordà and one of the main Costa Brava destinations. It offers round-the-clock entertainment with no shortage of leisure options and activities. In the morning, for example, you can go for a swim at the main beach or at one of the nearby little coves. The early evening is a good time for strolling and shopping, making the most of the cooler temperatures. When the sun goes down it’s time to enjoy the terraces, bars and restaurants. And if you get the chance to come back in October, there’s plenty of beer on tap in the Autumn Festival, better known as the Beer Festival.
