Beautiful walk along the headland. It can be a bit undulating & you have to watch where you are walking because of uneven rocks & stones. There are a lot of steps. Part of the walk is on a properly built path & then other parts are on old established paths. The views across Salou are stunning. There aren't many cafes on route, so go prepared. A great way to pass a morning or afternoon.

Nice headland looking south over salou. Beautiful at sunset. Boat Trips make this headland a destination for snorkeling. There are a few places to eat…. Try and ignore the high-rise hotels scattered about the place. #ramblingstampcollectors

Lovely secluded quiet beach. Water is crystal clear and snorkeling is fun. No public toilets / bar / cafe but was two minutes from our hotel so all was good.
