Europe's beach Salou is located on the stunning Costa Dorada coastline, also known as the Golden Coast. It's famous for its sweeps of soft sand, pretty coves and sparkling blue sea. Each is close to the beautifully restored lighthouse, built in 1858, and each offers a spectacular view of the Costa Dorada coastline.
Salou is busy, built up and not pretty but it has so much to offer for families. The neighbouring resorts of Cambrils and La Pineda are more relaxed if that suits your style. You will find some of Spain's best beaches, fascinating cities and one of Europe's largest theme parks on your door step.
Its golden sand and calm, clear waters make it very popular with tourists and locals as it is very comfortable and safe. From one end, we can access the Camino de Ronda, a hiking route that borders the coast of the Cabo de Salou revealing small coves and cliffs.
