If the Empordà region ensures that it is easy for you to take advantage of its beautiful scenery, the place where you choose to rent your mobile home will largely influence your visits and activities.
Millions of tourists come here every year drawn by the crystal-clear waters of the Costa Brava. There's no denying that a camping holiday by the sea is hard to resist. Make the most of a comfortable mobile home just a stone's throw from the Mediterranean Sea, its warm sandy beaches and idyllic secluded coves.
In Alt Empordà, the northern part of the region, Yelloh! Village Sant Miquel offers a one-of-a-kind experience with its themed areas and its scuba diving centre. A great opportunity to explore the wonders of the underwater world. In L'Escala, try a glamping and nature experience with Yelloh! Village Punta Milà, close to the Montgrí Natural Park and the Medes Islands.
Further south, in Baix Empordà, the setting is equally relaxing. With seaside resorts such as Sant Feliu de Guixols and Platja d'Aro, the mild Mediterranean climate will set the pace for your camping holiday. An idyllic setting where Yelloh! Village Sant Pol and Yelloh! Village Mas Sant Josep await you for a great 4 star camping experience.
Even if the coast is very popular, camping in the Pyrenees is much more than just an alternative option. Especially in the Empordà, since the sea is always within easy reach. Even better is the fact that you can admire it from the Catalan peaks. Make the most of a restful natural setting between the splendid Gorges of the Muga, the Puig de Bassegoda, which forms a border with the Garrotxa, and the pretty villages. It is precisely in this setting that you will find the Yelloh! Village Bassegoda Park.
What's more, each season offers a different landscape. If summer offers a unique chance to enjoy some unparalleled stargazing, autumn is the season for mushroom enthusiasts. Not to mention the fact that it is the time when the trees dress themselves in their most beautiful shades of red, orange and vermilion.
That’s easy. You will be spoilt for choice during your camping holiday in the Empordà! From outdoor activities and sports to cultural visits, authentic medieval villages and various events, your days will be packed with excitement.
However, if you prefer a more laid-back experience, you can also indulge in your favourite leisure activities. Relax and unwind on the picturesque Catalan beaches and coves and bask in the sunshine. Similarly, at the poolside, children can have fun in the paddling pool and aquatic playgrounds, or on the water slides.
You can be confident that bad weather will seldom spoil your camping trip in Alt Empordà. However, if it does, Catalonia offers numerous indoor activities such as museums, cinemas, and other attractions.
A must-visit site in the region, regardless of the weather, is the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres. Immerse yourself in the life and works of Catalonia's most iconic artist. An alternative suggestion would be a visit to Gala Dali Castle, a historic site where the artist produced many masterpieces inspired by his muse and wife: Gala. Or the Salvador Dalí House-Museum, a unique residence where the artist lived for many years.
Rainy days can provide a perfect opportunity to visit the renowned municipality of La Jonquera, well-known for its border location and plethora of shops. However, La Jonquera is also home to the Exile Memorial Museum, which recounts the story of the Spanish republicans who were forced into exile following the Civil War.
Are you on holiday with your family? In Figueres, in addition to the Dali Museum, you can also visit the Toy Museum of Catalonia. You will be taken on a wonderful journey into the history of this trade.
