Camarles (Catalan pronunciation: [kaˈmaɾles]) is a municipality in the comarca of the Baix Ebre in Catalonia, Spain. It was created in 1978 from parts of the municipality of Tortosa. It is situated in the east of the comarca, near the head of the Ebre delta. The town is served by the N-340 road to Tortosa, which also connects it with the AP-7 autopista at either l'Aldea to the south or l'Ampolla to the north.
