Question 1

Tarragona travel overview

Accepted Answer

Just an hour away from the great city of Barcelona – on the Northeast Coast of Spain and in the region of Catalonia – the port city of Tarragona has deep historical roots that date back to the Roman Age. It's an ancient city with a rich culinary culture and some of the best beaches on the Costa Daurada, so Tarragona is a must-see vacation destination, especially during the warm summer months.

Question 2

Where to stay in Tarragona?

Accepted Answer

While you're visiting Tarragona, the best place to find a vacation rental is in the Old Town area or Part Alta, granting you amazing access to the historical monuments, cultural attractions, and world-class beaches in the area. That said, the Eixample de Tarragona is another great area to stay in, especially if you want to explore the Rambla Nova promenade and take in the view from the Balcón del Mediterráneo.

Question 3

What to do?

Accepted Answer

During your vacation to Tarragona, it only makes sense to spend the majority of your time lounging on pristine beaches like Platja de Miracle and Platja Arrabassada or swimming in the clear Mediterranean waters. But it's worth knowing that the city of Tarragona also has a number of historical sites worth exploring, like the Ancient Roman Amphitheater, the Tarragona Cathedral, and the Ferreres Aqueduct (Pont del Diable). And with the city of Salou so close, it's well worth considering a visit to PortAventura World during your trip!

Question 4

Where to eat?

Accepted Answer

In Tarragona, the traditional cuisine is based on a Mediterranean diet with a strong focus on seafood and fresh fish, so you can expect to find a lot of local eateries that serve rice dishes like seafood paella.
