Cycling: The Vies Verdes (Greenways) are a fantastic way to explore the province. You can rent bikes in major towns and ride along the scenic paths that follow old railway lines.
Parking: Parking in historic city centres like Girona’s Old Town can be difficult and expensive. Look for public parking lots or garages on the outskirts and explore on foot.

Local Tips & Transport
Car is Recommended: While some coastal towns are connected by bus, a rental car is the best way to explore the Costa Brava’s hidden coves, medieval villages, and mountain roads at your own pace. Be prepared for narrow, winding roads in some areas.
Buses: The bus company Sagalés operates a network connecting many coastal towns and inland villages. It’s a useful and affordable option for getting between major points, but schedules can be infrequent outside of the high season.
Trains: The high-speed AVE train connects Girona to Barcelona and other major Spanish cities, making it an excellent base for day trips. The regional train line (Rodalies) runs along the coast, connecting towns south of Blanes to Barcelona.
From the Airport: Girona-Costa Brava Airport (GRO) is a hub for low-cost airlines, and buses or taxis are the best way to reach Girona city center or coastal towns from there. The airport is approximately 20-30 minutes by car from the city.
Parking: In the high season (July and August), finding parking in popular coastal towns can be very difficult. Look for public parking lots (often paid) on the outskirts of towns and be prepared to walk.
Catalan is the Local Language: While Spanish is widely spoken, Catalan is the official language. Learning a few basic phrases like Hola (hello) and Gràcies (thank you) will be greatly appreciated.
Dining Times: Lunch is typically the main meal of the day, served between 1:30 PM and 3:30 PM. Dinner is a much later affair, rarely starting before 9 PM. Many restaurants will offer a menú del dia (set menu) for a great value at lunchtime.
Avoid the Crowds: The Costa Brava is incredibly popular in July and August. To avoid the peak crowds and high prices, consider visiting in the shoulder seasons (May, June, September, and October). The weather is still excellent, and the atmosphere is more relaxed.
Embrace the Seafood: Fresh fish and seafood are the heart of the local cuisine. Don’t miss gambes de Palamós (Palamós prawns), local anchovies from L’Escala, or suquet de peix (a fish stew).
The “Other” Costa Brava: Don’t just stick to the coast. The Girona province’s inland regions, from the medieval villages to the volcanic zone, offer a completely different but equally rewarding experience.
