Five Reasons Consider Car Hire In Salou
This page gives you 5 good reasons to consider a car hire in Salou. There is
a lot to see and do in and around the resort of Salou and we’ve listed
5 occasions where car hire would be beneficial. There are also the names
of the car hire companies in Salou.
Factors To Consider Before Renting A Car In Salou
You should think about how long you are going to use the car for. If you
only want it to get you from the airport to your accommodation and you’re
going to leave it parked all week, then it’s not a viable option
as public transport would be cheaper.
If you are confident to drive around Salou and you will use the car at
least 2 or 3 times during your stay, then it’s worthwhile paying
the price of the rental.

Bear in mind that in August the streets of Salou are very busy
and it is difficult to park unless you have parking at your hotel.
What about the practicalities of actually picking the car up and dropping
it off? There are car hire companies based in Salou and also at the airport.
Always check with the car hire company if you are expected to drop the
car off at the same place you picked it up.
5 Reasons To Book A Car Hire In Salou
Reason One: Taking The Family To Port Aventura
The Port Aventura theme park is near Salou and you can reach it in 15 – 20
minutes by car. There is public transport to the park, but in a car you
can go when you are ready rather than rushing to catch the bus – which
is a lot easier if you’ve got to get all the children ready to go
as well!

Reason Two: Travelling Along The Coast
There are two lovely sandy beaches in Salou, the Ponent and the Llevant.
But there are more coves and inlets dotted up and down the coast between
Salou and its neighbouring resorts of Pineda and Cambrils. A car gives
you the freedom to have a change of scenery and try different beaches every
day, adding variety to your holiday.
Reason Three: A Day Trip To Tarragona Or Reus
The quickest way to get to the town of Reus or the city of Tarragona is
by car. Both journeys can be done in around 30 minutes by car.
Reus is a city of Modernism and has some beautiful buildings along a ‘Modernist
walking route’. It’s a great place to spend the day if you
are looking for some culture and it provides a nice contrast to the beach
atmosphere of Salou.
Tarragona is also famed for its architecture, and as it is a city it has
some great nightlife too. It’s a wonderful place to visit for a taste
of the real Spain.
Reason Four: To Travel To And From The Airport
You can rent a car at the Reus airport as there are various companies
in the arrivals hall. The journey to Salou from Reus airport is only about
15 – 20 minutes depending on traffic conditions. I always prefer
to have a car rather than being jammed onto a bus full of other people.
Hiring a car saves you time as you only have to heard up your own family
before you can set off and start enjoying your holiday!
Reason Five: To Carry The Shopping And The Kids
Most people indulge in a little souvenir shopping whilst they are on holiday.
If you’ve got a rental car you can cram in all your shopping and
you won’t have to worry about carrying it. Meaning that you’ve
got your hands free to do more shopping ;)
