About the destination
On the Costa Dorada and Costa Brava coast you'll find long sandy beaches, seaside resorts and plenty of options for a family holiday. PortAventura is also close to Salou. Salou is a lively resort with a wide choice of restaurants, entertainment and leisure, while Blanes offers a calmer, family-friendly atmosphere.
Spain is a European Union and Schengen country, so travelling is simple — a valid passport or ID card is enough, and you pay in euros just like in Latvia.
