Between the French border and the bustling city of Barcelona, situated directly along the beach of the Costa Brava, you will find the level-surface Playa Brava campsite. Here you can camp in a green environment, the protected natural park Montgrí-Baix. It is a very convivial venue with many great facilities. A wide range of activities both on the grounds and in the hilly surroundings. To experience the Spanish culture you can make excursions to neighbouring Girona, Pals or the magnificent Begur.

Playa Brava campsite is situated in a quiet location on the outskirts of a small coastal village. En route between a small inland lake and the circular road to the sea, you can already catch a glimpse of the stately reception. During the months of July and August it gets very lively and the entertainment team then organises an original programme for young and old. There are bouncy castles, swinging performances, karaoke evenings. You can also participate in spinning, water aerobics and a weekly craft class.

Lively or quiet

The pitches are all well-tended and are separated from each other by low hedges. There are deciduous trees on some pitches and around the campsite. The pitches under the trees are 800 m walking distance from the beach. Other pitches are slightly brighter and sunnier. Close to the water are the comfort plus pitches. With this set-up there is a choice for all. Do you want a lively pitch or rather a quiet spot?

In any event, you are never far away from a clean shower or toilet. Five sanitary buildings are scattered over the campsite.

Liked - Everything was just superb!! The grounds, the restaurant, the location, the beach. The showers and the toilets were the cleanest I have ever seen. There was this lady, who was cleaning all day. Overall we were very happy with everything there.
Disliked - That they were locking the beach gate at 8 o’ clock. It was a bit early
