Salou is definitely a grower. I wasn't sure myself the first time I visited, but by the end of my holiday I loved it and have returned many times since. I was there longer than you so had a bit more time for it to grow on me. The buzz of the place in summer is great. It's buzzing without being OTT like some large resorts.
Super video kevin and it is alot busier than I remember it and went for a drive to newry NI and couldn't believe when I saw the cow,had to take a photo and send it to you as one of your favourite sayings is that cow follows you everywhere 😂😂, it's in Quays shopping centre Newry if you ever back 😂😂 cheers again
I went to Salou once from Barcelona its a lovely place wouldn't hesitate to go back,from memory it's a 1 and a bit hours on train from Barcelona and is a lovely journey,have a great time there
As usual great video Kevin. Never been to Salou in fact I don't know anybody that has been there - so from my point of view very interesting and informative.
@@nigel8499 Haha , almost like that, there were some hotels but not so much traffic and fewer tourists. It was good to reminisce but doubt I will be back !!
I'm loving the videos . Still can't make up my mind if I'm going to book salou . Looks like a crazy amount of walking and very spread out. But for family's looks great
Kevin the Carrer de Saragossa tourist market street is unmistakable either day or night from the wavey wooden 'roof' and now it's all led light strip decorated. The tumblers/acrobats are regular features in many Spanish resorts and the Canaries, usually from North African countries. Cheers DougT
Kev just back from salou found it a bit pricey for drinks going to benidorm in september been watching your vids and it seems like a big difference any suggestions
Instant like. Danny Boy, The Flower of Scotland, and Temple Bar are 3 of the better bars in Salou (went to the latter 2 every night actually since we found it that good for atmosphere)! The bars along the seafront are also really nice! I agree on all the good bars being more spread out in Salou though, it's... one thing I tend to dislike about it, but it's not that bad. Assuming that's it for Salou videos already though? Shame if so.
The very top of the Ramblas has about a dozen bars,a fair few with live music so it's a pity you turned around and there's a lot of hotels and places to eat there too. That's Salou's trouble though, bits all over the place. You don't seem to have been to the old part of Salou, near the station which has more of the same. Its a bit strangely laid out but you've still got a fair bit to find around the place.
We're going to Salou in September Kevin. Thanks for finding the Temple Bar, I now know where it is 😂. Aye, Salou is getting a lot busier but it seems they don't want tourists in Spain but where would it be without the tourists. Its they're own government that has caused the problems the locals are facing not the tourists. It seems every government is the same eh.
Was in salou last summer..absolute rubbish..Just shops and restaurants mainly..Danny boys was rubbish..the singer if that what you want to call him was awful..no disco bars in the place, hardly any bars at all for it being so big..1 night me and the misses walked down from the fountain to the marina ended up in some Scottish pub down a side street and he put on some Scottish TV comedy..it was the best thing we found to do that night but it was also sad that it was the best thing to do in salou
It's a shame you weren't able to just enjoy your holiday anyway. Salou has never been on the scale of Magaluf, Benidorm etc. and I for one am grateful for that. It's nice to have a large resort which isn't overrun with sex shows, cheesy comedians/acts etc. but, different strokes for different folks.
Thanks for Watching !

Love that bar the temple bar
got a video walking there ta
Salou was my first holiday abroad when I was 17 in 1972. I loved it, but it does seem busier than I remember.
I imagine it was more of a sleepy fishing village in '72?

You won't be the last to get lost there looking for the Temple Bar Kevin.
Keep up the good work
You can't go to shanklys when the football season is on ......salou is closed from end of October to April
The temple bar is a fantastic night out
Looks lovely. Never been to Tenerife.
This is of Salou.
All continental schools are on holiday now so it’s bound to busy. Thanks Kevin.
Hi kev your in the right place it is a very bizzy 🎉
Not been there since 89 remember some streets I think, but over all looks very relaxed place
@@buisty1888 1989, the worst year in Salou's history!
Salou or Palmanova, where did you prefer?
Kev just back from salou found it a bit pricey for drinks going to benidorm in september been watching your vids and it seems like a big difference any suggestions

How is the weather like in Salou in October?
Mid 20s normally. Still warm enough to lie out in and don't think I've ever needed a jacket at night. We don't like it too hot though.

Was gonna ask if they were many mobility scooters. Saw 1 at the end 😂
I like salou not to mad and more Spanish authentic

@@johncameron6853 Thankfully Salou hasn't gone on the anti tourism vibe. They know that the town would die without tourists.
The French schools Closed for summer last week ,they drive down to Salou
Thought you might of had a go with them lads Kevin

Can l ask what you wanted for your holiday , what were your expectations? Not being shitty l swear just genuinely curious what people prefer.
