Salou Holidays

The once tranquil fishing village of Salou has been a popular sun and beach destination since the mid-19th century. However, it was not until the 1960s that Salou began to catch the attention of foreign holidaymakers. With its perfect location on the shores of the Mediterranean, vast golden sand beaches, and excellent tourist infrastructure, Salou has become a favourite family holiday and cheap package holiday destination that can be reached in just over 2 hours from most UK airports. This pleasant resort town is well-connected to Barcelona by train and bus services, and day trips to other popular destinations in the Costa Daurada (such as the World Heritage site at Tarragona and charming Cambrils) are also feasible from Salou. Pleasant weather, fantastic food, and plenty of entertainment options to suit all ages and interests are some important reasons to visit Salou.

When to go

Despite its location on the Mediterranean coast, Salou has a clearly marked winter season where temperatures can drop to 9 °C. The summer months are definitely the best time of the year to visit Salou and to enjoy its beaches, as average temperatures during July and August are in the region of 25 °C. If you are visiting Salou during June, July, or August, get ready to enjoy up to 10 hours of sunshine per day. The temperatures start picking up in May and the area stays warm until September, which marks the beginning of the rainy season. Sea water temperatures average 22 °C during the summer and stay around the 20 °C mark until October.
