Beaches of Barcelona

Barcelona has a little more than 4km of coast and in this extension there are a total of 9 beaches. If you decide to go to one of these beaches, you must know that they are well connected with the city center and equipped with the most complete services: showers, surveillance, hammock rental, locker rooms (in some cases) and Chiringuitos !!

People with mobility problems will be able to access them easily as they are provided with adapted public walkways, showers and toilets, …

Another important fact is that all the beaches in Barcelona are cleaned every day throughout the year, and all have the blue flag of the European Union that homologates its excellence. So taking a bath is most advisable when the good weather is already here!

The beaches of Barcelona are:

Sant Sebastià: One of the oldest beaches in Barcelona, along with Barceloneta. It is also the largest.
Sant Miquel: It is located between Sant Sebastià beach and Barceloneta.
Barceloneta: In this beach you will find Espai de Mar, an equipment destined to facilitate the access to the beach and the marine environment, by fomenting the inclusive practice of sport and leisure.
Somorrostro: It is located between the Gas breakwater and Marina pier. As the most important feature of this beach, besides the enjoyment of the bath and the sun, we could say that it has a lot of historical memory. Not many years ago, this stretch of the coast, welcomed the neighborhood of barracks Somorrostro, which came to live about 15,000 people in very precarious conditions.
Part of this beach (in front of the Hospital del Mar), you will find the Centre de la Platja, an environmental education place dedicated to the development of the city’s coastline. This building offers, from March to September, all kinds of activities for all ages: workshops, routes, stories, visits, shows, social gatherings and games. It also offers information and many other services that you can have a look here.
