Things to do in PortAventura Park
Located only an hour from Barcelona, PortAventura World with its three theme parks (PortAventura Park, Ferrari Land, and PortAventura Caribe Aquatic Park) is one of Spain’s most visited theme park resorts and one of the most famous in Europe.
PortAventura Park has six themed areas: Mediterránea, Far West, Mexico, China, Polynesia, and SésamoAventura (based on the characters of Sesame Street). Each themed area has its own attractions, including rides, restaurants and shows, as well as hotels to fit the theme.
The Mediterránea area replicates a typical Catalonian fishing village. One of its star attractions is undoubtedly the Furios Baco, an accelerator roller coaster that goes from 0 to 135km/h in 3 seconds. The Polynesia area is more laid back in style with lush vegetation. Visitors to this area can enjoy the Tutuki Splash, a water-themed ride that shoots out of a volcano.
Put your nerves of steel to the test on Shambhala, the highest roller coaster in the park with a 78-meter drop, or on Dragon Khan, with its eight loops at 100km/h, both in the China theme zone. Visit the Mayan pyramid in Mexico and bring out your adventurous spirit in the labyrinth of El Secreto de los Mayas, or if you prefer, become a cowboy for a day at the Buffalo Rodeo in Far West. And of course, don’t go home without saying hi to Elmo and Bert at SésamoAventura.
The nearby Ferrari Land offers 60,000m² of pure adrenaline. In addition to learning about the history of the Italian brand, you can also enjoy attractions and car racing simulators. Speed lovers cannot miss the Red Force attraction, which rises 112 meters and reaches 180km/h in just 5 seconds. Another of the most popular attractions is the Maranello Grand Race, a 570-meter racing circuit where you can compete with the whole family.
And to cool off, nothing beats a visit to the Costa Caribe Aquatic Park, a Caribbean-themed waterpark that offers reggae music, palm trees, beaches, and 16 water-based attractions. The star of this park is the King Khajuna free fall slide, Europe’s tallest at 31m (131ft) and with a 55-degree drop.

Reviews PortAventura Park
“This was just for tickets so no Tui staff present. It was only a 20 minute walk from our hotel which was nice. Hit there just before opening and we're able to get subbed together but no shade. Queues for slides too long. Lazy river had very rough floor so grazed toes but ok. Wave pool didn't have waves, more like ripples. Lifeguards whistles constant as no sunglasses, spectacles of goggles allowed in the pool. Allowed to bring own water. Food tasty and not too expensive for a water park.”
“Rep wasn't clear on costs, cheaper to buy direct from official site. Rep never asked parties ages all went down as adults Queue were outrageous and to buy fast pass was more than cost of ticket! Prices fluctuate during time of day and when ur planning ur trip.”
“Its a big park and plenty of pools/slides to visit however we did not enjoy the experience constantly whistles being blown which was annoying some of it seemed like quite daft stuff, lot of people smoking right by the pools why obviously kids were about. I dont think it'd be somewhere id book again”
“Got on 3 rides all day, long queues rides out of order. Queued for 1 hour for 1 ride, just about to get on then it closed due to technical problems.”
