San Feliu de Guixols Holidays

Sant Feliu de Guíxols, a pretty town on the Costa Brava in northeast Spain, is an enchanting destination known for its stunning coastline, cultural heritage, and vibrant local life. Nestled between the Mediterranean Sea and lush green hills, Sant Feliu offers a perfect mix of relaxation and adventure in the picturesque province of Girona.

The town’s beautiful beaches, such as Sant Pol and Sa Conca, are perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and water sports – the crystal-clear waters and fine sands make these beaches ideal for both families and beach lovers. If you’d rather set out for some exploration, the 17 kilometre Camí de Ronda coastal path offers great views and access to hidden coves and cliffs.

Retain some energy, though, because Sant Feliu’s historic centre is a delight to explore. The Monastery of Sant Feliu de Guíxols, dating back to the 10th century, is a must-see cultural landmark and now houses the town’s history museum. Take time to wander through the charming streets and discover the mix of colonial and moorish architecture, pop into quaint cafés and restaurants for tapas, and visit the Placa del Mercat for fresh, local produce.

You’ll never be short of outdoor activities in Sant Feliu; from hiking and biking in the nearby Gavarres Natural Park, to diving and snorkelling in the marine reserve of Ses Negres – there’s plenty to do in the area. The town’s modern marina also offers boat trips, sailing, and fishing opportunities, perfect for a slice of Catalan life while you’re on the beautiful Costa Brava.
