Holidays on the Costa Dorada – Spain’s Golden Coast
Costa Dorada holidays feature the superb sandy beaches stretching south west from Barcelona to Tarragona on the east coast of Spain. Holidays to the Costa Dorada offer an enjoyable mix of lively Costa Dorada beach resorts, characterful coast towns and small picturesque villages in the mountains that back the coast. A superb climate ensures Costa Dorada holidays are popular all year round. Costa Dorada holidays are very popular with families, combining outstanding sandy beaches with some of Spain’s most exciting attractions for children: the Aquopolis waterpark at La Pineda and the thrills and non-stop entertainment at Universal Port Aventura, Spain’s best known theme park.

Costa Dorada holidays – Superb beaches and family attractions
Salou is by far the liveliest Costa Dorada holiday resort and is ideal for visiting Port Aventura. Quieter Cap Salou offers a more relaxed alternative with intimate pretty coves complementing a fantastic choice of Salou beaches. Downtown Salou offers an inexhaustible selection of cafes, bars, restaurants, nightclubs and discos. Costa Dorada holidays offer outstanding lively Mediterranean beaches at Cambrils and La Pineda, which along with Salou form a 10-mile continuous beach resort. Cambrils is a more authentically Spanish alternative to Salou, with attractive old cobbled streets, a picturesque fishing harbour and renowned tapas bars and restaurants. Holidays on the Costa Dorada also feature idiosyncratic Sitges, a famously cosmopolitan Spanish resort popular with the gay community and trendy visitors from Barcelona. Sitges has elegant mansions, superior museums, film festivals, carnivals and famously vibrant nightlife.

Holidays to Costa Dorada – Visit Barcelona and explore delightful mountainous surroundings
Costa Dorada holidays are not complete without a visit to the fabulous city of Barcelona, which is easily reached by public transport from Costa Dorada resorts. Other worthwhile Costa Dorada holiday excursions include Tarragona with its a fine cathedral and extensive Roman ruins and the monastery at Montserrat. Costa Dorada holidays should include a trip into the lovely farmland stretching inland towards the mountains, a delightful region of vineyards, almond orchards and pretty little villages.
