Fun days out in Costa Daurada (Tarragona)
Published April 27 2023
The most amazing family days out! Here are our best excursions that you can do with the little ones within Tarragona and Costa Daurada.
The most fun family day out! Port Aventura is a famous Spain theme park for having some of the fastest and tallest rides in the world and for being a great family-friendly spot to spend a day or a couple of days with your loved ones.
To get to the park you can take a train called Port Aventura and it takes about 30 minutes. If you have rented your own car it's even easier, just take the 2nd exit at the roundabout in A7 highway to “Castelló/València/AP-7/E-15/Port Aventura” and you will be at the park; it takes about 15 minutes.
The park is divided in sections or different world locations such as Polynesia, China, Far West, Mediterrania, México and Sésamo Aventura! This last one is a special area for younger kids with many different rides. But within the other regions there are rides that you can get into with your kids as well – just check with the staff at the line of every ride!
The ticket is 40€ for adults and 35€ for kids. If you want to know more about the park, how to get there and all the activities available for your family you can check here.
If you are looking for a more refreshing experience to cool down from the heat, we recommend Caribe Aquatic Park too! Within the area of Port Aventura, you have this separate water park with 16 different water rides and pools for all ages. It’s a great option to combine the parks and get tickets for both of them at a lower price: 56€ for adults and 49€ for kids.
Travel 4 baby top tip: if you buy your tickets online, it is cheaper than buying on the day at the box office.

It's great if you need to cool down as the summer heats gets hotter. The park is the water version of a bouncing castle.

There is of course a life guard making sure everyone is safe and a life jacket included in the price for each kid and adult as well.
