A review of this place: Nothing Special

I’ve been with my family. It’s fun, yeah, I’ll give you that, but it’s nothing special. The best part was the theme park. But overall it wasn’t great, mostly because it’s really overcrowded with tourists, which I didn’t like. And it’s a really typical family holiday spot, and I think I’m getting a bit old for ‘family holidays’ at 16.

Just like any other costa tourist town

Salou has everything any other Spanish costa town has: the icecream parlours, the trail of souvenir shops, the crowded beaches, the expensive beach chairs, the tourist bars and snack bars with picture menu’s outside their doors. So if that is what you are looking for, you can find it here – but also in a lot of other places.
Salou also has got a bit of a reputation for its nightlife: Here in Belgium we had a docu-soap called ‘Hot kisses from Salou’, documenting the nightlife of tourists in Salou. In the Netherlands they had a soap called ‘Proppers’, following the people that try to lure customers to bars and disco’s in Salou. The soap was fiction, but even I was approached by a ‘propper’ when I visited (I was 15, my parents were not amused :D)

I didn’t enjoy Salou very much, perhaps as I was getting to old for the family costa vacations and still to young to venture in to the nightlife. The theme park was by far the highlight of the trip, that is definitely worth a visit.

I live in Spain during the summer and I’m always forcedback to Salou, not only because I live close, because it’s an amazing place with such friendly people.
The beaches are briliant, the shops are brilliant and the traffic isn’t too bad either.

A review of this place: Cambrils

I wasn’t exactly in Salou I was just outside it in a small place called Cambrils but I did venture into Salou a few times. And I must say it was an amazing place. Even if I did get sun stroke once :/
But Salou is beautiful and has amazing cafe’s
I would honestly love to return to meet the amazing people I did.
And I sure hope that one day I do go back.
I do think it’s a good place for a family or even a couple. It’s a nice place and very peacful. Although the beaches are always over crowded. So I would recomend a bus into cambrils and go to the beach there.
