Salou is recognized (and it is no coincidence) one of the best shopping and gastronomic centers in the region. From May to the middle of October, life at the resort does not cease - the streets are full of colorful tourists, the beaches abound with sunburnt and not very resting bodies, everywhere the clink of glasses with sangria is heard and the scent of paella is constantly heard up to the nose.
Salou, as a rule, is chosen by tourists with children (for a local beach and developed infrastructure) and young people who like to party and have fun (understandably for that). Those who prefer any fun scenic landscapes and nature, it is worth paying attention to a small bay of Cap Salou, which is located just north of the main beach. People who know say that this part of the coast is very similar to Croatian Istria.
