Costa Daurada is the name for the holiday area on the Catalan coastline between Les Cases d'Alcanar and Cunit. It is a low-lying coastline with extensive beaches of fine golden sand and shallow water. Some geographical features stand out, however: the Ebro Delta, covering an area of 320 square kilometres and stretching some 25 kilometres out into the sea; the Cap de Salou, which forms the eastern end of the gulf of St. Jordi; or the rocky outcrops, running in the west from L'Hospitalet de l'Infant to L'Ampolla, and in the east from the Punta de la Móra to the Munts d'Altafulla and Torredembarra.
The biggest town on this coastline is Tarragona, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. However, the Costa Daurada cannot be described without including the hinterland which influences it, with towns like Tortosa, Reus and Valls, areas like the Terra Alta, Priorat, Conca de Barberà and Baix Penedès, historic sites like Poblet and Santes Creus, and mountainous areas of outstanding natural beauty such as the Ports de Tortosa or the mountains of Llaberia, Prades and the Montsant. An ideal region for touring, whether you stick to the coastline or venture inland to explore the landscapes of the coastal mountains.
The Terres de l’Ebre region is unique on the Mediterranean coast. It is a picturesque land with a great cultural wealth. Located in the southernmost part of Catalonia, it’s terrain is nourished by the Iberian Peninsula’s largest river - the Ebro - and its shores are bathed by the warm waters of the Mediterranean.
The Terres de l’Ebre is made up of the counties of Baix Ebre, Montsià, Terra Alta and Ribera d’Ebre and offers a wide range of activities just waiting to be discovered. Its unique landscape, extensive variety of leisure pursuits and rich cultural heritage make an ideal setting for enjoying the tranquillity of these lands, far from the agglomerations of the conventional tourist resorts.
