Camping Arc De Bara

Those who don’t want to venture far will find plenty to do in the Arc de Bara surroundings: watersports in the Catalonian sea; cycling and walking paths, hiking trails near the mountains, and the fishing and rural villages all over the region to get a taste of traditional Spain. Within 18 kilometres is the city of Tarragona, the ancient Roman settlement that’s left behind plenty of geekily good old remains, such as its Amfiteatre Romà arena facing the sea, the Necropolis and the last bits of the Roman Forum, all part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. More modern buildings and bits in the city should also be seen, particularly its twelfth century cathedral and its medieval Old Town, before a long lingering bite to eat in the restaurants lining the medieval lanes. For much more of the same, Catalonian capital Barcelona is about an hour’s drive away.
