Salou is a tourist and residential city that has consolidated its capital role as the leisure and service centre of the 'Costa Daurada' through the diversity of its offer and the quality and quantity of its tourism facilities. Thus, on the one hand, it presents itself as a holiday destination and reference point, concentrating the majority of the basic tourism industry infrastructure in the Tarragona regions (74 lodging facilities) and acting as a main motor with regard to developing and capitalising on the diversity of the area's entertainment and cultural offer. On the other, it is also home to the main agent for regional dynamism, the Costa Dorada's attraction par excellence: the Universal Mediterránea complex, which consolidates the Salou product and its sphere of influence as the most important leisure centre on the Catalonian seaboard and in the Mediterranean arc in general.
