	L'Estartit stretches North-South from Cala Montgó, at the southern tip of the [[Roses Gulf\|Bay of Roses]] (''Badía de Roses'') to the [[Ter River]] estuary in the Bay of Pals (''Badía de Pals''). East-West it extends three kilometers inland from the shoreline and includes the hills of [[Rocamaura]] and [[Torre Moratxa]], and to the north of these the old farmhouse of [[Torre Ponça]]. The Montgrí Massif ([[Massís del Montgrí]]) plunges into the sea forming about 9 kilometers of high, rocky, and cut coast, in which we find several coves, including [[Cala Calella]], [[Golfet del Falaguer]], [[Cala Pedrosa]] and [[Cala Ferriola]], as well as different caves, including the tunnel [[Roca Foradada]] and the [[Tres Coves]], closest to Cala Montgó. The [[Medes Islands]] are an elevation within the sea of the Montgrí Massif range. From the GI-645 road, you can also see the lower peaks called [[Tossal Gros]], [[Tossal Mitjà]], [[Tossal Petit]], and [[Puig de la Reina]].

	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]], [[Republic of Ireland\|Ireland]], [[Germany]] and the [[Netherlands]], with significant numbers coming from [[Barcelona]] for the weekend too, whilst the majority of the labor force hails from the south of Spain, especially [[Andalusia]] and [[Extremadura]].

	Like many other tourist resorts around the world, massification and uncontrolled growth led the town to lose the charm that had made it popular in the first place. Tourism has been dwindling since the 1990s. However, the underwater beauty of the Illes Medes, the large and well-equipped sports marina, and the abundance of nearby golf courses keep divers, sailors, and golfers coming back year after year and has seen a revival in the area's fortunes. The important development of nearby campsites or even within the center of Estartit is also noteworthy, so the type of tourism that hosts Estartit has a more familiar profile than in other tourist spots. In addition, the town is considered one of the best destinations in the world for scuba diving, which makes the tourist season longer than in other towns that only offer traditional sun and beach tourism and do not have this additional tourist asset. Despite this population shift to tourist activities, agricultural and livestock activities are still maintained, and the town has preserved the remaining old fishing houses and cobbled streets from before the 60s.
