La Pineda

La Pineda is a lovely, laid-back resort which sits atop a slight hill and overlooks the warm waters of the Mediterranean on Spain's Costa Dorada. La Pineda is a much quieter resort than areas like the nearby Salou. La Pineda has a super stretch of shimmering sandy beach (a Blue Flag winner). The beach area is popular with shallow and safe water for swimming, a good water sports school that offers everything from waterskiing and windsurfing to pedaloes and plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas for a more relaxing beach experience.

La Pineda has a good selection of cafes, local restaurants, busy bars, supermarkets, and tourist shops to cater to all your needs. You can do the beautiful coastal walk from La Pineda to Cap Salou or take the bus. Taking its name from a type of flowering willow, La Pineda has many scented pine trees adding to the natural look of the resort and a pretty palm-lined promenade for evening strolls.

The amazing Aquapolis waterpark provides fabulous family fun with daredevil rides, pools, sealion and dolphins shows daily. La Pineda is located approx. 3.5kms from the wonderful PortAventura theme park also, so more superb entertainment is close at hand. Families and couples will appreciate the charms of La Pineda with its convenient situation close to Salou and only 1 hour's drive from beautiful Barcelona.
