Subject: Climbers for beachfront gardens?

I'm having problems establishing climbers at a beachfront hotel garden in Algarve, Portugal. I've tried Bougainvillea and Solandra - they don't make it. Its not that the beach is violently stormy more a question of salty breezes I think. Other plants that thrive here include Euryops chrysanthemoides Ficus rubiginosa and Cordyline australis. Any suggestions greatfully received.
