Spain in summer has a special kind of magic. The beaches fill with sunshine, old streets come alive with music, and long evenings invite you to sit outside and order one more plate of something delicious. From the busy streets of Barcelona to the quiet coves of Mallorca, almost every corner of the country has…
Salou is much more than a beach resort. Long stretches of Mediterranean sand sit beside a lively seafront promenade, while quieter coves and rocky corners offer a calmer escape when you want to get away from the crowds. Then there is PortAventura World, just a short distance away, bringing a completely different kind of excitement…
Catalonia is much bigger than the picture many visitors have in their heads. Barcelona is the headline act, of course, and it has earned every bit of the attention. But beyond the city, the region opens up into golden beaches, Roman ruins, medieval villages, volcanic landscapes, and fishing towns that often get left off the…
Madrid and Salou feel like two very different worlds.

Salou is known for its beaches, and it’s easy to see why once you experience them. Some are wide and sandy, with palm trees, cafés, and plenty of people enjoying the day. Others are smaller and tucked away, with rocks around the water and a much quieter feel. That variety is one of the nicest…
