Holidays to Costa Dorada for Traditional Tapas Bars and Excellent Seafood

Like a Disneyworld on the Med, with rides and entertainment for days of pleasure, it’s no surprise that three of the top holiday hotspots are close to Universal's Port Aventura. Ultra modern Salou is the largest and liveliest of the three, offering international holidaymakers beach fun by day and a heady mix of nightlife, dusk 'til dawn.

For families seeking a less frenetic holiday base, La Pineda is a firm favourite, with a road train that runs to Port Aventura and the Aquopolis waterpark on the seafront. Finally, Cambrils offers a more exclusive package holiday for families and groups of friends wanting the mix of tourist mod-cons with local culture.

Only 15 minutes from Salou, the charming seaside town of Cambrils has retained much of its original fishing village feel, with cobbled streets, traditional tapas bars and excellent seafood in the quayside restaurants. It boasts a vast array of restaurants, which – come the evening – will be flush with tourists enjoying fine holiday cuisine.

For a change of scenery, sightseeing in the historic city of Tarragona makes for an interesting day out, just a short distance from all three holiday resorts. Here you will find a clutch of traditional Catalunyan restaurants nestled amongst the aged charm of the town.

Situated only 35km from Barcelona, the stylish holiday town of Sitges has long been a popular retreat for the trendy Catalunyans escaping the city and the smart shops, pretty cobbled streets and beach-side promenade provide all the essential ingredients. An artistic and bohemian town, Sitges is also noted for its vibrant nightlife, gay scene and colourful carnivals.
