L'Estartit is a small town and seaside resort on the Costa Brava, in the north-eastern coast of Spain.
The town is situated between the foothills of the Montgrí Massif and the Mediterranean Sea.
The town is part of the borough of Torroella de Montgrí, in the Baix
Empordà county, Girona province, autonomous community of Catalonia.
L'Estartit itself stretches from Cala Montgó, at the southern tip of the Bay of Roses (Badía de Roses) to the Ter River estuary in the Bay of Pals (Badía de Pals). It also extends three kilometres inland from the shoreline. It includes the hills of Roca Maura and Torre Moratxa and the estuary of the River Ter.
A Kilometre off shore lies the Illes Medes archipelago, a world-renowned diving paradise made up of various uninhabited islands. The area has been protected by Natural Park status and is home to many different species of flora and fauna, both above and below the waterline.
Initially a fishing village, the advent of tourism in the Costa Brava from the 1960s onwards brought a large influx of visitors to the town during the summer months. The community grew exponentially for the next two decades, initially with houses and villas built up the hills that surround the harbour, and later with hotels, apartment blocks and campsites extending along the beach and the flood plain of the Ter estuary.
The tourist industry also led to a large immigrant population (mostly from other parts of Spain), needed to serve the ever-growing number of visitors. Tourists visiting L'Estartit originate mainly from France, the United Kingdom, Germany and the Netherlands, whilst the majority of the labour force hails from Andalusia
