  • Girona-Costa Brava Airport (GRO) is the main entry point into Costa Brava. Car rentals in Costa Brava are a reliable choice when visiting. Car rental desks are located on the ground level of the terminal building. With various car rental options like SUVs, economy cars, minivans, and trucks, you are sure to find a vehicle suitable for your needs. Several reputable providers like Europcar, SIXT, Enterprise, and Budget have rental booths at the airport.

Infants up to one year old must be seated in rear-facing car seats. Children ages one to four years old should be secured in forward-facing car seats with harnesses.

Morning rush hours in Costa Brava run from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m., and evening rush hours are from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. To avoid being stuck in heavy traffic congestion, it is advisable to plan journeys outside peak hours.
