Travel show. Joe Lindsay and Aoibhinn Nà Shúilleabháin head to Salou on Spain's Costa Dorada, and Joe visits a newly-opened historic country house in County Wexford.
Joe Lindsay and Aoibhinn Nà Shúilleabháin are based in Salou on the Spanish Costa Dorada. Salou is famous as a package holiday beach resort, but Joe and Aoibhinn discover that there is a lot more to the area than just sun, sea and sand. They visit the fishing port of Cambrils and the historic town of Tarragona, and journey into the nearby mountains, where they find tranquil villages and stunning scenery.
In this episode's short getaway, Joe is in County Wexford, where he visits a newly-opened historic country house and explores the Irish National Heritage Park.

The Dragon Khan Rollercoaster
Duration: 01:47
Port Aventura Theme Park
Port Aventura is split into six themed areas including the Far West, China, Mexico and one for the nippers based on the characters from Sesame Street. But without doubt the park’s main attraction are its roller coasters, Shambhala which is the tallest roller coaster, with the longest fall in Europe.
Poblet Monastery
This is a working monastery so  before you arrive as the chapel is closed for prayers at intervals throughout the day. Â
Tarragona Bike Tour
Roman Ampitheatre, Tarragona
Tourists come to see the amphitheatre and the cathedral and it feels very Spanish - both the old quarter and new town have wonderful squares and plazas. It is easy to understand why this has been a favourite resort since Roman times.
Cambrils Market
There are several miles of sea front here, stretching from Salou to its smaller sister town, Cambrils. Cambrils considers itself a bit more upmarket than Salou and has markets to explore and plenty of foods to try.
