Cambrils Destination Guide

Cambrils

Cambrils provides a beautiful and relaxing destination for families making the most of Jet2holidays.com cheap package holidays. Just 15 minutes from Salou, the seaside town of Cambrils offers a more laid back holiday setting on the Costa Dorada's 'gold coast', ideal for families and couples.

There are no high rise hotels and the resort has been sensitively developed to preserve the town's original character as a thriving fishing community. The harbour is a hive of activity every afternoon, when the local fishermen unload the day's catch and the excellent fish restaurants are widely acclaimed as some of the best in Catalonia, including the Michelin starred establishments of Joan Gatell and Can Bosch.

Fantastic Beaches for a Relaxing Holiday in Cambrills

For classic beach holidays, Cambrils boasts 9 kilometres of Blue-Flag, sandy shores with safe, shallow waters for swimming and watersports on offer. Windsurfing, sailing and diving are popular pursuits, with lessons available for beginners.

Unlike some of the neighbouring towns, Cambrils hasn’t been dominated by the influx of tourism, instead celebrating its traditional heritage and this is one of the reasons that package holidays lazing on the golden beaches are so popular with families and young couples.

Sampling Traditional Spanish Cuisine on Holiday in Cambrills

For those with extensive palates, Cambrils offers the perfect package. The town boasts a rich gastronomy heritage and this is married with plentiful seafood restaurants. For those keen for a taste of home there are plenty of restaurants and small eateries to cater for this. Along the seafront, the promenade is strung with shops, bars and restaurants to satisfy every need throughout the day and when the sun goes down, but Cambrils is not the all-night party town of neighbouring Salou. In the old village quarter, the narrow cobbled streets provide a pretty place to explore and try tasty tapas in a traditional Spanish bar.

Great Attractions to See Whilst on Holiday in Cambrills

No holiday to Cambrils is complete without visiting the region's major tourist attraction of the Port Aventura theme park just 3 km away, where Europe's largest loop-the-loop roller coaster is among the many highlights in the five themed lands. The historic city of Tarragona, with its famous Roman monuments, is also just a few miles away.
