I have been travelling for three months across Europe. I am in my last couple of days and was looking for a place to unwind and relax on the beach. I found Tarragona and am staying in a nice, clean hostal for 20 euro a night that is about two minutes to a very large beach.
The city center is nice and not too big. If you are looking for Roman ruins, there is stuff to see here.
Stay away,don't tell anyone about this place. I want to keep it for myself. Just kidding. My first stay in spain was tarragona. I will go back in 2006. Do I have to say more. Love the place. Visit tarragona and you will come back
