Salou, Coastal municipality in Costa Daurada, Spain

Salou stretches along the Mediterranean coast with sandy beaches, featuring a prominent seafront promenade lined with palm trees and fountains.

The Supreme Court of Spain granted Salou independent municipality status on October 30, 1989, separating it from Vila-seca administration.

The annual Festa de la Segregació celebrates the municipality's independence with concerts, traditional dances, and local food exhibitions.

The town connects to major cities through regular bus services, with Barcelona airport at 112 kilometers and Reus airport at 9 kilometers.

Torre Vella, constructed in 1530, stands as a defensive watchtower that protected the region from Mediterranean pirates.
