  • A quiet and cosy site with scenic views over Els Ports Natural Park
  • Horta de Sant Joan under a 10-minute drive; Arnes a 15-minute walk
  • Pool, bar-restaurant, playground, football pitch and barbecue area
A terrific time is to be had in the Terra Alta region of Tarragona at quiet and cosy Camping Els Ports… with views from the pool over scenic Els Ports Natural Park – one of the most important biodiversity reserves in Spain. The rocky landscape of the surrounds covers an area of Catalonia, Valencia and Aragon totalling a whopping 60,000 hectares of lush forest, sprawling valleys and limestone massifs with steep faces. Wildlife can be seen in the area too, from Ibex goats and wild boars to Griffon vultures and eagles, and trekking and biking trails range from the trickier Els Ports trail to the easier Fou gulley path. In general, there should be no worries about the weather being too hot for hiking, as the region has an Interior Mediterranean climate with sweltering Spanish summers cooled down somewhat by the Ports mountain range trapping sea air from the coast for a bit of a breeze. But if the wind does fail you, the natural pools at Toll Del Vidre are a 10-minute drive away for a dip… As well as swimming and walking, expeditions of a more adventurous nature available at Els Ports include canyoning and 4x4 drives – ask for more details on site at the restaurant-bar while sipping a Spanish cerveza. Eateries (plus a supermarket) are also in the pretty village of Arnes (a 15-minute walk), or you can grill food on site at the barbecue area. For the kids, a play area and a football pitch are to hand as well.

What customers say

This is a very clean and well-maintained campsite with friendly and helpful staff. Guests enjoyed the excellent pool area and the good food in the restaurant. Pitches are spacious and flat, and facilities, including shower blocks and toilets, are spotless. Its peaceful mountain location, close to Via Verde, is also a highlight.

Colette T.

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch (superior)

Liked The pool area, spotless pool with plenty of room for a swim and plenty of sun beds .. great cafe bar. Staff very friendly and helpful, lovely level pitch with optional 10 amp electricity at €6.50 per day .. we were on a bigger pitch (99) opposite the pool area. Clean facilities and best of all a washing machine €3.50 including detergent. Would stay again.

Disliked We had to watch the trees overhead as our motorhome is quite high but this is not a complaint.

Local attractions

To blend in a bit of culture with all the nature-focused activities, head into Arnes to check out the 16th-century Town Hall’s Catalan Renaissance architecture or simply sit under mulberry trees with views of the towering Roques de Benet rock formations. Alternatively, head to the hilltop village of Horta de Sant Joan (just over a five-minute drive) to wander through atmospheric streets in search of the village's 1,000-year-old olive tree… If you’re craving busier cities, the nearest sizeable Spanish settlements to Camping Els Ports are Tarragona (an hour and 30 minutes away) and the seaside resort of Salou (an hour and 20 minutes) with its famed PortAventura family theme park.
