Great experience, especially if you have little ones! Dogs(with lease) are welcomed too!
Big parking outside. The entrance to the park is also the gift shop with lots of interesting items. The fee is 12€ for adults, small kids enter for free. The employee is very friendly and helpful. The bathrooms are also in the entrance building (unfortunately, the first bathrooms were not very clean, the next ones were cleaner though).
After you enter the park, on your left hand you have the cafeteria that has sitting outside as well. They sell ice creams too. There is no drinking water fountain in the park so bring a bottle.
The first animals you encounter are peacocks and ducks walking freely amongst visitors! Then, on your right, you have some birds and turtles. The next thing to see is the lake (turtles swimming inside), such a cute scenery! Then a greenhouse. Then the deers, some more birds and chickens. Then you arrive in the picnic area that has a playing are for kids (obsolete but the kids there seemed to like it). It is great if you have kids because they are safe in a big but gated environment! There are bathrooms nearby(in the venue where they celebrate weddings).
The labyrinth is closed as it’s been rebuilt(with plants off course).
I can understand the comments saying this could be better because indeed there could be more animals(eg more ducks, maybe add goats, donkeys, etc). But the park is beautiful and there is a relaxed atmosphere, so I recommend it for a visit with kids!

Beautiful, peaceful and full of charm – perfect for families! 🌿🦌
Parc Samà was one of the highlights of our trip to Cambrils. It’s not just a park – it’s a historic botanical garden with an old-world charm that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time.
The grounds are huge, with scenic walking paths, small lakes, exotic trees, elegant peacocks walking freely, turtles, deer, and other animals — our son was amazed!
There’s a lovely children’s area, plenty of benches to relax, take photos, and just enjoy nature.
You can easily spend 2–3 peaceful hours here. Everything is clean, calm, and beautifully maintained.
The place truly feels magical — like being transported into the past. There’s a beautiful, old house on the territory, and we had the impression that someone once lived there and that it was all part of their private estate. It adds so much historical atmosphere to the whole experience.
By the way, we rented a car specifically to explore special places, and Parc Samà was our very first stop. We chose it on purpose and it did not disappoint! Peaceful, picturesque, and totally worth the visit.
If you’re in Cambrils – don’t miss it!
Perfect for families, couples, or anyone who loves nature, history, and calm vibes.

Came here after we’d seen most of Salou and wanted a bit of a change. Parc Samà is a lovely mix of botanic gardens and a historic estate—beautiful lawns, ponds, waterfalls, bridges, and a big old house you can admire from the outside.
We fed the deer, chickens, and peacocks (you can buy food at the entrance) and had a look around the little olive oil museum, which was something different. There’s a small café for coffee and ice pops—perfect on a hot day—and a gift shop too.
It’s €14 per adult so a bit on the pricey side, but with free parking, loads to explore, and a peaceful vibe, it’s well worth it. Great spot for families or anyone looking to escape the buzz of Salou for a while.

One of the most peaceful and magical parks near Cambrils.
Parc Samà offers an amazing combination of nature, architecture, and animals — perfect for a calm walk, a family day, or unique photo opportunities.
The highlight for us was seeing a peacock sitting high up in a tree — something you don’t see every day!
The deer are very calm and friendly, and we even caught a few beautiful moments with parrots near the palm trees.
Don’t miss the small lake and charming stone bridges — it truly feels like a hidden paradise.
Highly recommend for couples, families with kids, or just anyone looking to disconnect in nature.

This park was gorgeous! Such a hidden gem. If anyone is near Barcelona it’s about a 1 1/2 hour car ride from there and totally worth it. Since it is kind of out of the way there were only a handful of people there so not as crowded and touristy as the major cities which was a nice change of pace. We lucked out and rented a car so we could stop and explore the park for as long as we wanted. I wanted to say we were there three to four hours. (You definitely don’t need that long if you’re not as into photographing every other thing you see because it’s all so breathtaking.) such a cool find. Highly recommend!

La zona al voltant de la presa es ideal per al passeig així com també per fer pic-nic puntualment. Bastant concorregut. Actualment s'han fet millores de seguretat pel que fa al passeig damunt la presa amb nombroses càmeres de videovigilància. El camí lateral asfaltat, permet la circulació de vehicles per accedir a alguns carrers de l'urbanització lateral, arribat a un punt existeix un cadenat que priva el pas dels mateixos, però que es pot continuar amb bicicleta o a peu per fer excursions i recorreguts diversos.
Per exemple hi ha el camí d'uns 2'5 km. fins a Dues aigües.
Per desgràcia degut al canvi climàtic i a la sequera existent el panorama actual és desolador, la presa està tan sota mínims que el punt de presa d'aigua pel reg ja està totalment descobert en zona seca fora de l'aigua.

Muy cerca del pueblo, pequeño paseo pero el tramo final carretera sin arcén, un poco peligroso para pasear, y más si vas con niños.
El bar al lado de la presa sólo abre por la tarde, así que no puedo opinar porque no pudimos tomar nada. Los aseos "públicos" en una casita anexa, cerrados.
Para pegarse un baño está bien, pero no hay ningún tipo de servicios, ni WC, ni papeleras, y poca sombra.
La zona estaba bastante sucia, pero eso es culpa de la gente irresponsable y poco cívica que deja sus desperdicios y no se los lleva. Al ser un entorno natural la gente tendría que cuidarlo más.

Lugar muy agradable y tranquilo para conectar con la naturaleza, rodeado de pinares y senderos para hacer picnic, senderismo y pasar el día en el campo.
Fuimos el 25 de diciembre 2023 y hacía muchísimo frío, así que recomiendo ir bien preparados de ropa de montaña para poder pasear sin dificultad.
El embalse se encuentra sin apenas agua, diría que en mínimos, una verdadera lástima, ahí dejo unas fotos y espero que las lluvias nos visiten pronto.
Muy recomendable para pasar el día en familia o con los amigos.

Le pondría 5 estrellas dadas las impresionantes vistas de montañas, árboles,... pero es una pena, que como veis en alguna foto, nadie se está preocupando por limpiarlo y se ven cañas y plásticos que acabarán obstruyendo alguna salida, a lo largo luego del rio o en el propio mar. No estaría mal de que entre todos empezásemos a aportar nuestro granito de arena y aunque sea recoger un plástico, lata,... cada vez que vayamos a sitios así y no pensemos que lo tiene que hacer otro que para eso le pagan.

Der jahrelange fehlende Regen macht sich extrem bemerkbar an diesem kleinen Stausee, er ist ziemlich leer. Leider gibt es an diesem Stausee keine Infotafel oder irgendwas Informatives. Man kann ohne Probleme über die Staumauer laufen, das war es aber auch schon. Keine Freizeitaktiväten dort möglich.
