Beach description
A pine forest surrounds a sandy stretch that stretches along the Mediterranean Sea for 3 kilometers. The width of Larga beach is not very large, about 30 m, but it is rarely crowded because of its length. The beach is under a cliff and a hill covered with greenery. Here is a convenient gentle entry into the sea with a sandy bottom and a gradual increase in depth. Wind and waves almost never happen. There are always fewer visitors to this beach than to other city promenades; it is ideal for families with children.
Larga Beach is not only a stretch of excellent coast with fine soft sand and clear water. It has everything you might need while relaxing by the water. There are toilets, showers. You can rent:
- sun loungers and umbrellas;
- water-skis;
- catamarans.
A bar is open on the beach during high season. Larga is a city beach, so some of the hotels in Salou are located in close proximity to it. Other hotels are easily accessible.
When is it better to go
The beach season on the coast of Spain falls on the period from May to October. The water and air temperature reaches the most comfortable levels, thereby guaranteeing tourists a perfect vacation.

How to get there
From Salou to the beach can be reached on foot in a few minutes (5-10). There are two options for descent to the sea – along a long staircase or along a path. The first option allows you to get to the shore faster, but it is not suitable for transporting strollers. For those who can’t go down the stairs, there is a special path laid in another part of the beach.
