Holidays in La Pineda, Costa Dorada, Spain

- La Pineda is a relaxing family resort and, together with its’ neighbours Salou and Cambrils, makes up the largest tourist region in the area.

La Pineda, situated on the north-east coast of Spain on the Costa Dorada, is a relaxing family resort and, together with its’ neighbours Salou and Cambrils, makes up the largest tourist region in the area. A stretch of 10 km of sandy beaches and a string of secluded unspoilt coves attracts many holidaymakers to La Pineda, along with the wonderful weather, beautiful scenery and extensive tourist facilities. Compared to Salou, with its’ British-style bars and pubs, La Pineda is a much quieter resort, fairly modern and perfect for families with children and couples. The beaches along the Costa Dorada, known as the ‘Gold Coast’, are of a high standard and the long sandy beach at La Pineda is no exception. It is kept clean and offers safe conditions for swimming and plenty of facilities such as beds and umbrellas for peaceful sunbathing. The beach at La Pineda is backed by a seafront promenade, at 2.5 km the longest in the area, and most of the resorts’ hotels, apartments and shops are close by. La Pineda offers a good choice of bars and restaurants, and caters to both locals and tourists, with authentic Spanish dishes and plenty of international food as well. During the height of the summer, many of the bars in La Pineda stay open late, but real party-goers should head for Salou, and its’ hectic nightlife.
