- Beachfront site 10 minutes’ drive from Blanes, on the Costa Brava
- Girona 45 minutes’ drive; Barcelona an hour
- Dogs welcome; swimming pool; kids’ club; restaurant, bar and food shop
A beachfront site within a maritime pine forest, with dips in the Mediterranean just a short walk away and shaded afternoon siestas? Sounds like a dream, right? Or maybe it sounds like a ‘sueño’, since the site in question – Camping El Pinar – is on the outskirts of Blanes, just at the start of the Costa Brava, about an hour’s drive north of Barcelona.
For most, the main attraction here is the location: right on Platja de s’Abanell, one of the longest sandy beaches along this coast and a popular spot for watersports. If the seaside is not your jam, there is plenty to keep you entertained on site, starting with a large swimming pool with sun loungers and umbrellas.
If you feel particularly active, you might want to take part in water-fitness classes, arrange a game on the sports field or the pétanque court, or hire a bike (on site) to explore the seafront on two wheels (it’s a 10-minute ride to the centre of Blanes). The kids have a play area and organised activities ranging from games and workshops to dress-up sessions with entertainers. And the family dog is not left out either, with a dog park where it can stretch its legs.
In addition to a restaurant (serving paella, pizza and sangria, among other things), there is a food shop selling local produce. Other amenities include a toilet/shower block with facilities for disabled guests, plus a drying room and a launderette.

Local attractions
The seaside town of Blanes (10 minutes’ drive) is overlooked by the Castell de Sant Joan, a medieval fortress on a vegetation-covered rocky hill with far-reaching views of the rugged coastline and its sheltered coves, like Cala Bona. The windy paths of the Marimurtra Botanical Garden, fringed with exotic plants from all over the world, also have spectacular sea views.
Head inland to Girona (45 minutes), a university town with a pretty historic centre of narrow alleyways and stone buildings. Take a stroll along the top of the city walls, step inside the Romanesque cathedral, admire the collections at the Art Museum or catch an exhibition at the CaixaForum Girona cultural centre.
In Barcelona (an hour), football fans head straight to Camp Nou stadium, while art and architecture enthusiasts start their tour at Gaudí’s unfinished Basílica de la Sagrada Família, before checking out other awe-inspiring Modernist structures such as Palau Güell or Casa Batlló.
