| The sea influences
the local gastronomy, in which the fruits of the fishing
industry predominate.. "Romescos", "asmarris",
"alls cremats", "xatons", "bulls",
"suquets", "arrossos"... they form
another magical tradition which must be tried, without
forgetting the better known components of the mediterranean
diet. The climate favours the local nightlife: the terraces
are the anterooms of the enclosed premises for music
and dancing. By day the possibilities are also varied:
starting with the beach -long, wide and of fine sand-,
there are sporting and nautical activites of all types,
cultural visits, shopping and commercial areas and picturesque
sightseeing tours... it offers a complete range of opportunities
where everybody can find his own magic sense of the
mediterranean, of the people and their history.
The magic of Torredembarra is also
the magic of Roman Tarragona, the lively historic capital;
the magic of the Císter excursion route, including
the Royal Monasteries of Santes Creus and Poblet; the
magic of the universally popular theme park Port Aventura;
the magic of the olympic modernity of Barcelona; the
magic of the winegrowing areas inland; the magic of
its folklore; the magic of the Ebro Delta. But, above
all, it is the inherent magic of Torredembarra: the
peace of the beaches, the serenity of the sea, the luminous
light which falls on everything, the richness of its
gastronomy, the historic buildings, lively variety of
its cultural and festival traditions, the balanced contrast
between old and new...
If you come you will see. Torredembarra,
a sea of magic.
