Best time to go to Costa Dorada

In July and August, temperatures on the Costa Dorada typically hover between the mid-20s and the low-30s. But the beaches feel a bit cooler, thanks to the sea breeze. Highs range from 16°C to 18°C in spring and autumn, and drop to around 10°C in winter.

Passports & Visas

Health & Safety

You should take out comprehensive travel and medical insurance to cover you while you’re away. It’s also a good idea to get a European Health Insurance Card – or EHIC – before leaving Ireland. Though it’s not a substitute for travel insurance, it entitles you to emergency medical treatment on the same terms as Spanish nationals. It won’t, however, cover you for medical repatriation, ongoing medical treatment or non-urgent treatment.
