The Ebro Delta in autumn
Rice harvest, gastronomy and golden colours
Autumn transforms the Delta into a palette of golds and ochres. It's rice harvest time, gastronomy festivals and freshly cut rice season. Temperatures (15-22°C) are ideal for long excursions, and La Ràpita's restaurants serve the season's best: rice, seafood and eel.
Season highlights
- Rice harvest (September-October): tractors among golden fields
- Rice gastronomy festivals in La Ràpita and Amposta
- Esmorzars de forquilla: traditional hearty morning meals
- Day trips to Serra del Montsià and Ports de Tortosa
- Grilled eel and local rice at the restaurants
