5 getaways to postcard towns on the Catalan coast

18 January, 2023

The Catalan Costa Daurada is one of those destinations which, due to its rich history, its culture and the peace it transmits, is a great option to visit for a few days. Five postcard-worthy towns stand out which are ideal to discover at any time of the year, also in winter, with family or friends.

  1. Altafulla: It was important in the 18th century for its shipping and agricultural trade activities. The castle-palace of the Marquises of Tamarit stands out.
  2. Ametlla de Mar: It is full of small coves with turquoise water. You can go snorkelling and swimming with bluefin tuna is a unique experience.
  3. Torredembarra: Its medieval streets, lined with historical monuments, are highly appreciated by visitors. Without forgetting its calm and little crowded beaches.
  4. Cambrils: A fishing village with a beautiful promenade, the port and its offer of nautical tourism. There are many restaurants with a varied culinary offer.
  5. Tamarit: Its main asset is the walled enclosure which surrounds the castle and the Romanesque church, restored in 1988 and listed as an Asset of Cultural Interest.
