Package holiday to Salou

Salou is the ultimate family beach destination on the Catalan Costa Dorada, and owes its reputation to two unbeatable advantages: kilometers of golden sandy beaches with a gentle entry into the warm Mediterranean Sea and its close proximity to PortAventura World, one of the largest and best amusement parks in Europe. The city south of Tarragona is fully geared towards families and beach-loving holidaymakers, offering a relaxed, safe, and excellently organized holiday atmosphere.

The main beach, Platja de Llevant, is the heart of Salou - a wide, golden sandy beach that stretches over more than a kilometer and is lined with an elegant palm promenade. The water is shallow and calm, ideal for small children, and the beach infrastructure with sunbeds, showers, lifeguards, and playgrounds leaves nothing to be desired. The Platja de Ponent on the other side of Cap de Salou is a bit quieter and shaded by pines.

PortAventura World, just a few minutes' drive from the center, is the real magnet of the region. The amusement park, with its six themed areas, including the spectacular Ferrari Land with Europe's highest and fastest roller coaster, and the water park Caribe Aquatic Park, offers entertainment for several days. Many hotels in Salou offer combo tickets, and a free shuttle bus connects the city with the park.

Beyond the beach and amusement park, a trip to Cap de Salou is worthwhile, a rocky cape with a coastal hiking trail leading to hidden coves and viewpoints. The nearby city of Tarragona, just 10 kilometers away, impresses with its Roman heritage - the amphitheater right by the sea is a UNESCO World Heritage site. In the evenings, Salou's promenade comes alive with a light fountain spectacle, street performers, and family-friendly restaurants.

From Germany, you can fly to Barcelona or Reus, with Reus being only 10 kilometers from Salou. The train connection from Barcelona takes about one and a half hours. The season runs from May to October, with PortAventura opening as early as Easter.

Salou particularly impresses with stunning beaches, family-friendly offers. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
