The Costa Dorada/Tarragona region
L'Ampolla is a fishing village on the North east coast of Spain. Nowadays L'Ampolla has top class restaurants, mooring for yachts and cruisers from all over the world and even its own nightclub. L'Ampolla is located on the same latitude as Majorca and on a clear day you can see the island from La Mariona. L'Ampolla is part of the Golden coast or Costa Dorada which is fast becoming one of Spain's most popular resorts.
L'Ampolla's beaches have very different characteristics and including large sandy beaches, pebble beaches and small coves. (For more details look at the villa's own website - link below in contact details).
There are two types of sandy beaches in l'Ampolla. Fine golden sands characteristic of the Delta region and beaches surrounded by reddish cliffs which, together with the blue sea and the green pine trees, create a landscape of great natural beauty.
As for coves, along the coast you will find several, surrounded by an extraordinary landscape, which makes them ideal for those who seek nature and peace.
In the centre of L'Ampolla the beach has been awarded the blue flag 3 times for its cleanliness. The village also has a volley-beach for the more energetic, and several nearby restaurants, bars and stalls selling drinks and snacks.

L´Ampolla is just one of many beautiful villages along the Costa Dorada and within this region there is no shortage of things to do for the whole family. Water sports, scuba diving, quad-biking, riverboat cruises, beaches, night-life... and of course CATFISHING. The list is endless.
