Having been to Peniscola, I can report it's rather beautiful and well worth a visit. However, this is no day trip on a cruise stop from Barcelona - by car or train, if you want time to enjoy the sights. Perhaps someone needs to take another look at the map for any other uniquely named tourist stops a lots closer to Barcelona. I'd recommend Tarragona.

I have done the trip by car, but it is about 240 km from Barcelona. It was a long day's trip but we wanted to visit as it is a family castle (well it was a family castle). It was the home of Benedict XIII also known as "Papa Luna". It is worth seeing, but not a quick trip from Barcelona.

 

Good Sailing

Tom
