August is one of the liveliest months in Calafell. The beaches are packed, restaurants and terraces are bustling, and the promenade becomes one of the most popular spots both day and night. If you’re thinking of a getaway to the Costa Dorada, this is the perfect time to enjoy the Mediterranean and everything this destination has to offer.
Besides spending the day at the beach, Calafell has a wide range of activities, historical sites and a gastronomy that is worth discovering. At Akquaaa Hotel Boutique, located on the seafront, we offer some of the best plans to make the most of your vacation.
Enjoy the beaches of Calafell
To speak of Calafell is to speak of the beach. Its more than five kilometers of fine sand and calm waters make it one of the most comfortable destinations to enjoy the summer, whether you are traveling as a couple or as a family.
During August, the beach becomes the center of activity. There’s space for those who want to relax in the sun, for those who prefer to stroll along the shore, or for those who enjoy practicing water sports.
If you stay at Akquaaa Hotel Boutique, you’ll have the beach just a few meters from the hotel. We also have sun loungers facing the sea, a perfect option for enjoying your day at the beach in greater comfort.
Take a stroll along the seafront promenade
One of the plans that never fails is to walk along the Calafell promenade.
In the morning, it’s an ideal place for a stroll along the seafront before the temperatures rise. As the day progresses, the atmosphere changes, and the terraces, ice cream shops, and small stores begin to fill up.
The promenade comes alive in the afternoon and evening. It’s the perfect time to stroll after the beach, grab an ice cream, or simply soak up the atmosphere that characterizes Calafell during the summer.
Discover Mediterranean gastronomy
Holidays are also a great opportunity to enjoy the local cuisine.
In Calafell you will find a wide range of restaurants where fish, seafood, rice dishes and local products predominate, always with the Mediterranean as the main focus.
If you’re looking for a restaurant by the sea, Akquaaa Restaurant offers a menu based on Mediterranean cuisine made with quality products, perfect for both a quiet lunch and a summer dinner.
In addition, during the summer months, every Saturday night we have a live DJ, creating a different atmosphere to enjoy dinner, have a cocktail and extend the afternoon by the sea.
Have a drink at a Beach Club
After spending the day at the beach, many visitors look for a place to relax before dinner.
Akquaaa’s Beach Club is one of those places worth visiting during the summer. You can enjoy a cocktail, a refreshing drink, or a snack while gazing at the sea and making the most of the last hours of daylight.
It’s a simple plan, but very representative of summer on the Costa Dorada.
Visit Calafell Castle
If you fancy combining the beach with a bit of cultural tourism, the Castle of Santa Creu de Calafell is a highly recommended visit.
Located in the upper part of the municipality, it allows you to learn about the medieval history of the town and enjoy beautiful views over the coast.
Nearby is also the Iberian Citadel of Calafell, one of the most important archaeological sites in Catalonia and a good option to spend a few hours discovering the past of the area.
Practice water activities
The sea conditions in Calafell make it an ideal place to practice water sports during the summer.
Stand-up paddleboarding, kayaking, and sailing are some of the most popular options and a different way to enjoy the Mediterranean. Whether you’re already experienced or trying one of these activities for the first time, you’ll find several companies offering equipment rental and introductory courses.
Enjoy the sunsets over the sea
One of the most pleasant moments of the day comes when the sun goes down.
At the end of the afternoon, the beach and promenade offer a much quieter atmosphere, ideal for strolling, sitting by the sea or ending the day with an al fresco dinner.
If you stay in one of the rooms with sea views at Akquaaa Hotel Boutique, you can enjoy this moment without leaving your room, with a privileged panoramic view of the Mediterranean.
