Camping in Catalonia – Mediterranean Beaches, Costa Brava, Costa Dorada and Mountain Landscapes
Catalonia (Catalunya) is one of Spain’s most diverse and popular holiday regions. Located in north-eastern Spain, bordering France and the Mediterranean Sea, it combines golden beaches, rugged coves, vibrant cities and impressive mountain scenery. Camping in Catalonia offers a wide choice of accommodation, from modern mobile homes and safari tents to luxury glamping lodges and spacious touring pitches close to the coast or in the countryside.
The coastline is divided into distinct areas, each with its own character. The Costa Brava, stretching from Blanes to the French border, is known for its dramatic cliffs, hidden turquoise bays and charming fishing villages. It is a favourite destination for snorkelling, kayaking and scenic coastal walks. Further south lies the Costa Dorada, famous for its long, gently sloping sandy beaches that are particularly well suited to families. Popular seaside resorts such as Salou and Cambrils offer a lively yet accessible holiday atmosphere.
Beyond the coast, Catalonia reveals a completely different landscape. The Pyrenees in the north provide excellent opportunities for hiking, cycling and exploring alpine valleys. Inland areas feature vineyards, medieval towns and peaceful natural parks. The Ebro Delta Natural Park is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers.
Barcelona, the cosmopolitan capital of Catalonia, adds cultural depth to a camping holiday. Gaudí’s architecture, lively markets and city beaches make it one of Europe’s most dynamic destinations.
Camping in Catalonia combines Mediterranean sunshine, varied coastlines and cultural richness. Whether you prefer the rugged charm of the Costa Brava, the family-friendly beaches of the Costa Dorada or the mountains of the Pyrenees, Catalonia offers a balanced and versatile camping holiday in Spain.
