Port Aventura Tickets in Barcelona

Port Aventura is a perfect destination for young and old alike. It is located in the heart of the Costa Dorada, about 100 kilometres from Barcelona and just a few metres from the sea. Its magnificent attractions and Mediterranean climate attract thousands of tourists so much so that it is among the top 5 most visited theme parks in Europe.

There is plenty to see and do in Barcelona and if your stay is long enough, a trip to Port Aventura is highly recommended. Especially if you're visiting Barcelona with your children.

It depends on what you want to do. As you know, the theme park is divided into three parts - Port Aventura Park, Ferrari Land and Caribe Aquatic Park - and each has a different cost. The table below brings together all the daily rates:

Please note that the reduced rates apply to children (from 4 to 10 years old) and the over 60s. For tickets for wheelchair users, you will have to pay €28 (Port Aventura Park), €12 (Ferrari Land) and €17 (Caribe Aquatic Park). These tickets can only be purchased at the ticket office.

Of course there are. If you're travelling to Barcelona for four or more days and it's not your first time in the city, I recommend you take the opportunity to stay a night at Port Aventura.

Spain's most famous amusement park has several accommodation options and if you prefer you can choose a house or hostel in the nearby towns.

There are three packages available and the table below shows you the features:

Sorry, Barcelona tourist passes do not include tickets for the amusement park in Salou. Port Aventura is a very large park and is a separate destination. It is also about 100 kilometres from the Catalan capital.

Port Aventura ticket offices are located at the main entrance to each park and start operating at 10:00. Please note that tickets purchased at the ticket office must be used on the same day.

In my opinion, this is not the best option as you are likely to have to wait a long time. To avoid queues, I recommend you buy them in advance

Since 1995, the year it opened, Port Aventura has become a highly sought-after destination for both Spanish and foreign tourists.

Choosing the best attractions is complicated as there are many and they are designed for different audiences. Even so, we can highlight our top five:

• Tutuki Splash (Polynesia zone), simulates a wooden boat going down a river. It is perfect if you have travelled to Barcelona in summer.
• Dragon Kahn, the first new generation roller coaster in our country. It is the icon of the park and for many years hosted the highest vertical loop in the world (China zone).
• Imperial Cobra, a colourful snake that is very popular with the kids (China zone).
• Angkor, a unique water attraction. The little boats follow the current in an environment reminiscent of Cambodian landscapes (China zone). Each boat is equipped with a water gun that you can use to wet the other participants.
• El Diablo, the mine train. It is the most recommended if you are travelling to Barcelona with children as it is not as extreme as other roller coasters in Port Aventura.

It depends on your tastes. The amusement park is very large - it covers 119 hectares - and has a wide range of attractions. If you are interested in something specific, such as the roller coasters or the Sesame Street area, you can dedicate a single day to it.

However, if you love theme parks and it's your first time at Port Aventura, I recommend staying overnight to dedicate two days to the experience.

Depends on the day and the season. In the summer months it is usually open from 10:00 to 23:00. In winter and spring the opening hours are slightly shorter: from 10:00 to 18:00, from 10:00 to 19:00 or from 10:00 to 22:00.

If you are travelling to Barcelona in autumn, bear in mind that on Halloween the amusement park opens as it does during the summer season: from 10:00 to 23:00.

If you're travelling with your family and want to make the most of your day at Port Aventura, no problem! We have prepared a decalogue with the best tips:

• Arrive early to avoid crowds and try out the busiest carousels straight away.
• Save on parking. With a bit of luck you can park for free on Avinguda Alcalde Pere Molas.
• Read the height requirements in advance. Like other amusement parks, Salou's amusement park also has height restrictions. As a general rule, you only need to be at least 140 cm tall to go on the rides. If you go up with an adult, the minimum height is 120 cm.
• If you are visiting Port Aventura from Barcelona in winter or autumn, I recommend you take a mackintosh to avoid the rain or simply to avoid getting wet on the roller coasters. If you arrive in summer, remember that some attractions do not allow access with a swimming costume.
• Don't eat at the usual times. After all, you're not here for lunch.
• Wear comfortable shoes. You will have to walk a lot during the day. Remember that flip-flops cannot be worn on all the attractions and must be left in dedicated areas.
• Port Aventura has a wide range of fast food restaurants. However, if you fancy eating à la carte you have four options: Iron Horse (Far West), La Hacienda (Mexico), Ristorante Cavallino (Ferrari Land) and Racó de Mar (Mediterranean).
• Take the internal train to get around the park quickly.
• Use the shopping pick-up service. Otherwise you will have to carry them all day long.
• Last but not least, don't buy your tickets at the last minute! You will avoid queues and save some money.

The theme park occupies a large area spread over two towns on the Costa Dorada: Vila-Seca and Salou. As it is in the heart of a tourist area, it is very easy to get there by public transport as well as by private means of transport.

The A-7, the Mediterranean motorway and the R-16 line of the Rodalies de Catalunya guarantee quick and easy transfers.
