Girona's Best Surf Spots

What is the greatest surf spot in Spain? The entire Mediterranean, but if you are looking for some more specific surf spots, head a little north of Barcelona to Costa Brava, one of the better coastal regions with great surfing.



To avoid crowds and catch some great surfing water, many avid surfers head north to a variety of spots in Costa Brava. Some of the favorites include: Beach Canyelles, Beach Garbet, Beach Grifue and Port de la Selva beach.

 

 

 



Beach Canyelles is almost 400 meters long and this low occupant area is a quiet place to relax and get some quality time on the water. This beach is a little rocky so sport shoes are recommended for surfing. There is easy access to the beach by N-260 in car and Barcelona's trains and buses provide transportation to the area.



Beach Garbet is just like Canyelles, it is a little larger, about 410 meters. The area is no urban and is very unoccupied and you can normally avoid crowds by going to Garbet. Beach access is similar to Canyelles with buses and trains running from Barcelona, as well as access with a vehicle.



Grifue is a highly noted beach of Girona, the beach has received a blue flag of Europe, which notes the beaches beautiful sand and clear blue waters. The beach is only 170 meters long and is decently busy during high seasons. However, the beach is cleaned nearly everyday to maintain its beauty. Again, access to the beach can be by car from Barcelona as well as bus and train.



Port of Selva is actually a region, which became independent in Catalonia in 2010. The beach is highly populated by tourist and fishermen, however, when the waves are good, the water is great for surfing. The port has plenty to offer for water sports.



Following a good forecast for waves is a great way to pick a day for surfing. Great weather forecasts for surfing normally result in a great day to visit Girona.
