Castle-Platja d’Aro is a region on Catalonia’s northeastern coast known for relaxation, with laid-back resorts and stunning sunny beaches. With a fair amount of sunshine all year long, it’s a popular destination for travelers throughout the seasons. Sant Pol Beach, for example, is a charming bay area that’s sheltered enough to dull the waves, making it safe for even smaller children to go for a swim in the ocean.

If you travel further inland, you’ll find Castell d’Aro, a historic and quaint village about 3 kilometers from the coast. You can explore the many buildings here that are centuries old and well-preserved. You’ll find a variety of resort stays right by the beach, and Castell d’Aro is one of the best spots in the region for travelers interested in history. Of course, family travelers may still want to experience Aquadiver, a massive theme park right along the coast.
