Guide to Estartit

'Once a small fishing village, Estartit has grown up into a reasonably-sized resort with all the top-notch facilities today's holidaymakers have come to expect.'

Estartit is a delightful destination that can't fail to charm you. And if you take a stroll around the town it is easy to understand its success – it's all the things that first attracted people to Spain's Costa Brava. For starters, there's that golden ingredient so vital to visitors. It has to be one of the biggest joys of holidaying – stretching out, eyes closed and soaking up those therapeutic, stress-relieving rays with nothing to do. But if sitting still drives you to distraction, there are plenty of activities aside from sunbathing. Estartit's excellent beach-side amenities offer you the chance to enjoy the Mediterranean Sea in any number of ways. You can try the thrills of windsurfing and boating or sailing or explore the world beneath the surface of the sea by going snorkelling or scuba diving. Or, if you're really keen on seeing what goes on below the waves, you could try a glass-bottomed boat ride around the Medas Isles. Away from the beach the fun continues. Estartit boasts a funfair which could well prove the highlight of the holiday for the younger members of the family. There's a golf course that welcomes serious players and beginners alike, about a 10 minute drive away. And when you need to refuel, you'll find a good selection of waterside restaurants. Or, you could choose to simply stroll around the twinkling marina and narrow streets of the town – basking in the good things of life. Don't forget to stop off at Santa Anna Street to mooch around its gift shops and treat yourself to an ice-cream at one of the many parlours where there are more flavours then you can imagine. So come and take things easy in Estartit. It's got happy holidays written all over it.
