Easter destinations in Catalonia
Are you looking for a different plan for this Easter? You don't need to go far to discover new destinations. Catalonia offers everything you need to disconnect for a few days while exploring different places, whether your ideal vacation is in the city or in the midst of nature.
From the beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean to the ancient alleyways of Girona and the Pyrenees mountains, here are the best destinations in Catalonia to enjoy your Easter getaway. Take note and organize your escape as soon as possible!
Enjoy the Sun and Sea on the Costa Brava
First on our list is a destination that combines culture, nature, and gastronomy. On the Costa Brava, you can do everything from spending the day sunbathing on the beach, weather permitting, to exploring the marine life by diving or tasting fresh seafood and fish in restaurants with sea views.
This is a good time to venture into the Camino de Ronda and discover the most beautiful routes along the Catalan coast. Also, to make cultural visits to the Cap Roig Gardens or the Vila Vella of Tossa de Mar.
You can stay in small fishing villages like Llafranc, Sant Feliu de Guíxols, Tamariu, and Calella de Palafrugell, ideal for a quiet getaway, or choose more lively destinations like Roses and Platja d'Aro, where you will find a wide range of leisure options.
Urban Getaway to Girona
If you prefer an urban environment, Girona is the ideal place for this Easter getaway. You will feel as if you have stepped back in time as you walk through the cobbled streets of the old quarter, discovering historical buildings along the way. Explore the imposing Cathedral of Santa Maria, the Jewish quarter, and the Arab baths, all must-sees on any tourist visit.
Don't forget to take photos on the bridge over the Onyar River, with the traditional colored houses in the background, and climb the stairs of the medieval wall to enjoy spectacular views of the city and its surroundings. Fans of Game of Thrones will recognize some locations that served as settings for the filming of the series.
During Easter, Girona offers various religious events such as the Via Crucis de Les Creus and the Procession to the Cathedral, two cultural displays worth seeing if you are in the city. They are led by groups of men dressed as Romans, known as "manaies" and "estaferms," offering a very typical view of these festivities.
Disconnect in the Mountains
Do you prefer to get away from everything and connect with nature? Then the mountain hotels of the Catalan Pyrenees are the destination you are looking for. With a tranquil atmosphere and stunning natural landscapes, they are the perfect place to relax and recharge your energy before returning to the routine.
Whether you prefer hiking, adventure sports such as rafting, or enjoying a spa, there are options for all tastes. And at night, there's nothing like contemplating the starry sky from the room of a charming hotel. We recommend villages like Setcases, Llanars, and Molló for an authentic rural experience.
You have seen that Catalonia has everything you need for an unforgettable Easter. We invite you to disconnect, relieve stress, and why not, discover new facets of Catalan culture and landscapes. Choose your destination with Grans Hotels de Catalunya and book your stay in our charming hotels!
