Camping Solmar - Splashing fun at the Costa Brava!
Camping Solmar is the destination for families seeking that perfect harmony of beachside relaxation and vibrant holiday activity. Located like an oasis in the heart of the town of Blanes, this site sits just a short, pleasant stroll from the Mediterranean, making it a hotspot for sun-seekers and sea-lovers alike. The combination of the expansive, feature-rich pool complex and the proximity to the bustling town centre creates an ideal, stress-free holiday rhythm.
Are you looking for a holiday that keeps the kids entertained while you unwind? With an engaging kids’ club and evening entertainment ranging from magic shows to live music, the energy here is contagious. The onsite facilities, including padel courts and a football field, are fantastic for all ages, though we find this site truly hits the sweet spot for families with children aged 4 to 14. Why is it such a hit? It’s all about the balance: you have the tranquility of your private bungalow terrace for morning coffees, and the vibrant, social atmosphere of the pool bar and restaurant together with the promenade and seaside terraces for your evenings.
Whether you’re planning a culture-filled day in nearby cities or just want to master the art of doing nothing by the water, everything you need is right on your doorstep.

Surroundings
The landscape surrounding the campsite is a picturesque fusion of coastal beauty and Mediterranean charm. Within a 10km radius, you will find the rugged, pine-clad cliffs of the Costa Brava, sweeping golden sandy beaches, and hidden crystalline coves. The area is defined by rolling hills, lush botanical gardens like Marimurtra, and the gentle, azure expanse of the Mediterranean Sea.
“When planning your stay at Camping Solmar, consider opting for a bungalow closer to the central pool area if you want to keep a close eye on the kids, or ask for a spot near the quieter edges if you prefer a more peaceful siesta.
The local supermarkets in Blanes are well-stocked, but for the true Spanish experience, head into town early on Monday mornings to visit the vibrant local market for fresh, seasonal produce.
Since the campsite is so close to the beach, skip the heavy umbrellas and rent a sun lounger locally to travel lighter.
If you’re arriving by car, remember that the site is well-connected to the N-II and C-32 highways, making day trips to Barcelona incredibly simple, but I highly recommend taking the train from Blanes station for a scenic, stress-free trip into the city centre.
For dinner, don't miss the takeaway paella; it’s a fantastic way to enjoy a high-quality meal on your own terrace without the fuss of cooking.
Lastly, while the entertainment team is brilliant, the best times to visit the pool are usually just after lunch when the morning crowd heads out, giving you the best chance to snag a prime lounger by the waterfalls.”
