Reus Airport (REU/LERS) is a seasonal gateway to Spain's Costa Daurada, located just outside Reus in Catalonia and about 10 km from Tarragona. It primarily handles holiday traffic to Salou, Cambrils, and PortAventura, with strong links to UK and Northern European cities. The compact single-terminal airport is easy to navigate and busiest from spring to autumn.
💡 Local Tip
Frequent visitors know that Reus's taxi rank can empty quickly after the last evening arrivals; pre-book a transfer or check the bus schedule before landing, especially on Sundays and public holidays.
🚖 Getting There
The airport is close to Reus and Tarragona, but public buses are limited outside peak season; pre-book a taxi, shuttle, or rental car if your flight arrives late. For Barcelona, allow 1.5–2 hours by road and consider train from Reus or Tarragona rather than relying on direct airport buses. Rental car desks are in the terminal, and the AP-7/A-7 motorways provide quick access to Costa Daurada resorts.
