Comarruga

The quiet coastal resort of Comarruga (in Catalan: Coma-Ruga) lies between Barcelona and Tarragona, on the Costa Dorada with its legendary «golden beaches». It is part of the El Vendrell municipality and was mentioned in historical records for the first time in 1180. Many well-preserved residential houses and renaissance-style villas contribute to Comarruga’s townscape. The thermal spas at Estany and Riuet on the beach are well-known for their healing effects! They account for the development of Comarruga as a holiday and bathing resort in the 29th century. Today it is renowned for its long, broad sandy beach. Since 1988 it has been proud to bear the «Blue Flag» seal of quality. Gently sloping and easy to keep an eye on, the beach is ideal for bathing holidays with children.
