Cambrils

While Cambrils has transformed from a humble fishing village into a chic vacation haven, it still retains much of its original charm. Here, days are spent basking on Blue Flag beaches, watching sailboats glide from the promenade, and exploring the characterful Old Quarter with its gently bustling markets.

Come evening, the village's refined nightlife doesn't disturb the peaceful pace, with waterside bars and tucked-away Michelin-starred restaurants catering to discerning palates. While all the trappings of R&R are here in sumptuous style, for everything else – including renowned architecture – Barcelona is just a 90-minute train ride away.
