For a great family time out, the Port Aventura Theme Park is definitely hard to beat. Featuring six different themes that include topics based on China, the Wild West, Sesame Street and others, there is definitely something for everyone here. This is what makes the theme park the areas’ top attraction but the surrounding sandy beaches; bars and restaurants nearby are an added bonus.

A good place to start if you’re looking for activities away from the theme park is the city of Barcelona, another popular tourist destination that is only an hour away from PortAventura. Things to do here include touring Barcelona’s top attraction, the Nou Camp stadium home to the world’s most successful football club of the same name, and family days out at Barcelona Zoo.

3: Aquapolis Water Park

If it’s thrilling that your family enjoys then you won’t be disappointed at Aquapolis Water Park: highlights here include the Kamikaze water slide and twisting flumes to hurtle and splash your way down. This makes the Aquapolis Water Park a must-visit if you go on a family holiday to PortAventura.

Before the end of the day, the whole family can also take in a dolphin display at the attraction’s dedicated aquarium.

4: Salou Beaches

The Salou beach fronts are another highlight of any holiday to PortAventura and if you are on a family break then the golden beaches found here will be perfect.

From here you’ll also be able to take in amazing views of the Llobregat valley as it stretches all the way to Barcelona in scenes that are only matched by those from the summit of Montserrat a further train ride away.
