Campervan rental in Tarragona

Those golden stones are a walking morning. A campervan is out of place in the upper streets and useful on the Costa Daurada’s edge or, more interestingly, south toward the Ebro delta, where rice fields, lagoons and a flat wind replace the hill. Barcelona’s orbit is north; the delta is the direction that feels like a journey.

The coast here is a family shore, broad and built-up in summer, not a series of secret coves. The delta is open, mosquitoed in season, and crossed by roads that a motorhome can actually use if you stay on them and off the fragile tracks. Sleep outside the Roman hill, and choose either the beach pitch or the rice country for the night, not a fantasy on the port road.
