SPORTS

Salou is an energetic city open to all activities, which
is why it could never neglect its sports facilities.
The capital of the Costa Daurada has an ample system
of sport-related infrastructures such as a sports pavilion,
a municipal indoor and outdoor pool, a football pitch,
a tennis club...
The capital of the Costa
Dorada, along with Cambrils and Montroig, have recently
inaugurated the Estacin Natica Salou-Cambrils-Montroig
(Salou-Cambrils-Montroig Nautical Club). |

Being
a coastal town, Salou has always offered the
chance to engage in water sports, above all during the
summer season. With the Estacin Natica, the selection
of sports has been widened, and you can enjoy windsurfing,
sailing, jet-skiing, boating and scuba diving all year
long place to do sport. That's why a sports area has
been created on Salou's Playa de Llevant (Llevant Beach)
where you can play basketball, football and volleyball,
do aerobics, fitness and strength-building exercises,
or just keep in shape, as well as engage in beach games
(paddleball, badminton, indiaka, korfball). |

|
In addition, Salou
is working on the construction of a large sports complex,
so as to improve the city's offer and meet the demands
of the Central European tourists who visit us in winter.
This area will span 20 hectares, and special attention
should be called to the construction of a stadium seating
10,000 people that will include sections of covered
stands. |

|
|
Finally,
you can also play golf, since the Costa Daurada has
four golf clubs for the lovers of this sport, just a
few kilometres away from the city centre. |
