In Salou, your best times will surely be spent on its beaches or along the coast. With over 9 kilometres of coastline, you will find urban, adapted, accessible beaches in Salou with full services. There are also stunning hidden coves sheltered by looming cliffs and pine forests, more peaceful and away from all the hustle and bustle.
Salou has made a clear commitment to high quality and user-friendly services, to ensure that you have a great time there. Ponent beach and Llevant beach, within the town limits, are shining examples of the stamp of Family Tourist Destination that was awarded to Salou: they are totally accessible and have services for all members of the family.
Both for example have children’s playgrounds. At Llevant beach, there is a babysitting service at the Family Beach Area, which is open in July and August.
There are permanent lifeguard and rescue services at Ponent, Llevant, Capellans and Llarga beach. There are surveillance rounds that take in all of cape Salou and the coves that don’t have permanent lifeguards.
Destination with quality and environmental certificates
- Quality, excellence and respect for the environment are the standards used when working on the Salou coast. All of the municipality’s beaches have been awarded ISO 14001 Environmental Certification, an international recognition that guarantees the implementation and maintenance over the years of management that respects the environment. ISO 14001 is renewed on an annual basis via an audit performed by AENOR (the Spanish Standardisation Organisation).
- The Q flag for Quality flies proudly at the Ponent and Llevant beaches, a certificate granted by the Spanish Institute for Tourist Quality (ICTE), which certifies the quality of the services available on these two beaches. Since 2021 both beaches are awarded with the Safe Tourism Certified.
