Thus it forms the entire coastal area of ​​the province of Tarragona .

In contrast to the Costa Brava further north, the Costa Daurada is characterized by long, fine-grained and gently sloping sandy beaches, which are ideal conditions for bathing tourism. The proportion of sandy beaches compared to rocky coasts on the Costa Daurada is significantly higher than that of other Spanish coastlines.
