Creator's Key Takeaways
The cruise port is in the center of the town, so no need for a shuttle bus. Just stroll off and then you're in to the streets full of restaurants, bars, shops, and some unusual statues which are definitely worth seeing.
I highly recommend if you've not been to Laquinia before heading to the Tower of Hercules.
We would always warn in Barcelona it is rife with pickpockers. So, please do keep all of your valuables to the front and only take out what you need.
It was truly fantastic. We spent most of the day in the sea.
