XCIX Port de Tarragona

Where to stay

Tarragona offers a range of options, from historic boutique hotels set within the ancient city walls to functional apartments near the port area. For a more immersive experience, look for stays in the El Serrallo fishing quarter, where the maritime tradition is most palpable. Prices generally range from €90 to €220 per night, depending on the proximity to the waterfront and the level of service. For those seeking coastal views, hotels overlooking the Balcó del Mediterrani are popular choices during the race weekend.

Things to do nearby

The weekend provides ample opportunity to explore the region's Roman heritage, including the well-preserved circus ruins and the seaside amphitheatre. Beyond the sites, visitors often engage in local seafood tastings in the El Serrallo district, known for its traditional maritime cuisine. For active recovery, the coastline is ideal for kayak and stand-up paddleboarding excursions, allowing you to view the city's defensive towers from the water. Local wine and distillery tours, reflecting the region's history with Chartreuse, offer a perfect cultural conclusion to your swim.
