Santa Cristina d'Aro is a small town in the Aro river valley (Baix Empordà region) at the junction of the road from Girona/Barcelona to Sant Feliu de Guíxols and Palamós. It is home to a number of workers in the nearby holiday resorts. The Costa Brava golf course is on the outskirts of the town.
The municipality includes the villages of Romanyà de la Selva, Solius and Bell-lloc. It also extends to the coast, including the area of Canyet de Mar.
Between 1892 and 1969, the town was connected to the city of Girona and the port of Sant Feliu de Guíxols by the narrow gauge Sant Feliu de Guíxols–Girona railway. The line has since been converted into a greenway.
