PortAventura holidays

What to do in Port Aventura

From thrill rides and waterslides to street parades and shows, there's never a dull moment on a PortAventura holiday. Ride the mega-coasters in the two theme parks or kick back on a Caribbean-style beach in Caribe Aquatic – with so much choice, no two days have to be the same.

PortAventura Park

You can travel around the world and through time in a single day at PortAventura Park – just pay a visit to each of the six distinct zones. Experiences range from chilled-out boat rides to classic white-knuckle coasters, with highlights including an old school steam train and a Mayan-themed maze.

Each zone also has its own theatre or stage area, where live shows are held throughout the day.

Sésamo Aventura

This Sesame Street-themed zone, which you’ll find within PortAventura Park, is perfect for young families.

Designed for kids under eight, there’s a range of low-thrill rides including Grover's Coco Piloto, where you fly above the park in a plane; Tami Tami, a rollercoaster that is aimed at junior thrill-seekers; and La Granja de Elmo, a gentle train ride through Elmo's farm. There's also a soft play area and daily shows featuring Sesame Street characters.

Ferrari Land

From rollercoasters and drop rides to a virtual F1 race, Ferrari Land is jam-packed with hair-raising, automotive-inspired attractions. After braving the superfast Red Force, go free-fall on the Thrill Towers. Alternatively, take part in the Maranello Grand Race, a 570m racetrack where you can test out your racing skills.

Other highlights include the Ferrari Experience, an interactive journey through the history of the legendary Italian Scuderia; and Flying Dreams, a virtual reality ride that lets you experience the muscle of a Ferrari GT.

PortAventura Parade

Held every evening in the Mediterrània zone, the PortAventura Parade is a treat for all the senses. Expect music and dancing, glowing lights, flamboyant costumes, and, best of all, larger than life floats that look like they’ve come straight from the (animated) set of Wacky Races! It’s quite the extravaganza.

PortAventura Caribe Aquatic Park

After fun-filled days at the two main theme parks, spend a day or two cooling off in PortAventura's waterpark. This vast park has 17 different attractions, including the wild river ride El Río Loco, the tempestuous waters of El Torrente, and the twin Barracudas slides, which boast the steepest drops in the waterpark.

Alternatively, relax to your heart’s content on Bahama Beach. With its sandy shores and gentle lapping waves, it's the ideal place to recharge after an adrenaline-fuelled day.
