Parc Highlights

The excellent beach is reached by the parc's own train
Enjoy stunning sea views from some parts of the parc
Entertainment includes open air disco and kids' water disco

Enjoying a truly spectacular setting, Cala Gogo really is as unspoiled as a beach holiday can get.

With its steep hillside setting and uninterrupted views of the Med, Cala Gogo is one of the prettiest parcs you can imagine. It even overlooks a delightful sandy cove where you can bathe in the crystal clear waters and you can stay in a mobile home with a beach front view. If you want to really take things easy, there’s even a mini-train to take you down to the beach. There’s plenty of scope for an active holiday too, with the choice of water polo, football, aerobics and tennis; not to mention the splash pool and playgrounds, sports and activities the parc’s owners arrange to keep the children happy. All the family can join in with evening entertainment from the end of June, and nearby, stylish Playa d’Aro offers cafés and bars for those wanting to venture off the parc.

Please note that some road noise can be heard and that some of our pitches are located on steep terraces.

Pre-bookable zoned accommodation is available to book on this parc. For more information on zone locations please view the sitemap above.

Customer tips

Local recommendations and tips our customers have shared with us following their holiday at Cala Gogo.

"There's an excellent waterpark in Playa d'Aro, Aquadiver. The Waterworld waterpark in Lloret de Mar was also good (tickets were free from Aquadiver). Playa d'Aro itself offered a good range of restaurants and Girona's old town was beautiful."
S. Maunand, Staffordshire

"Girona was an excellent historic town and the bays at Llafranc and Calella nearby were beautiful and worth a visit. We travelled from Perpignan to the parc and would highly recommend using the motorway and not the A-road… We got stuck in many long queues."
R. Webster, Gloucestershire

"Girona is stunning, the Dali Museum is fantastic and Playa d'Aro has lovely restaurants on the beachfront."
J. Hollingworth-Porter, London

"We recommend the Aquadiver waterpark. You could easily spend the whole day there and there are good facilities and cover from the shade during the day. The parc reception organised a free minibus to take us and bring us back!"
T. Law, West Midlands

"Playa d'Aro itself is lovely, there are lots of nice restaurants at reasonable prices. Also recommend Calella de Palafrugell and Llafranc. Girona and Figueres are worth a visit, in fact the region as a whole is very nice."
A. Timperley, Hampshire

"We liked the whole area of Playa d'Aro. We enjoyed lunch at The Wok just outside town. An unbelievable gastronomic experience at a very good price."
S. Sexton, France
