Cambrils,
the
city,
together
with
the
Tarragona
district,
have
enjoyed
a very
fast
development
over
the
last
two
decades.
With
its
fishing
and
agriculture
background,
new
emerging
industries
like
chemical,
petro
chemical,
services
and
tourism
leading
to
major
investments
in
infrastructure
and
increased
life
standards.
The
Port
of
Cambrils
appears
like a
high
standard,
modern
village
compared
to
only
some
few
years
ago.
Luckily
there
are no
tall
buildings
and
signs
of
mass
tourism,
so the
locals
have
been
successful
in
balancing
local
culture
and
integrity
with
tourism. |

Cambrils
is
easily
reached
via
two
international
airports,
Reus,
12km
away
and
Barcelona,
within
an
hours
drive.
The
beaches
here
run
for
around
9km
with
fine
sand
and
clean
waters.
You
will
find
plenty
of
water
sports
and
beach
activities.
Cambrils
is
still
however,
a
working
fishing
port
and
you
can
see
the
fresh
catch
being
weighed
and
sold
each
day.
The
resort
is
particularly
popular
with
Spanish
people
from
inland
areas.
This
is a
perfect
resort
to
base a
family
holiday
with
the
theme
park,
Port
Aventura
just
3km
away.
This
theme
park
requires
at
least
two
days
to
enjoy
it to
the
full.
Nearby,
La
Pineda
has a
water
park,
also
worthy
of a
day
visit. |
