Why this destination is a must-visit
Curiosities of Malgrat de Mar (Barcelona Coast)
Malgrat de Mar, on the Barcelona Coast, is a destination full of surprises. Behind the calm image of a seaside town lies a story of engineering feats, resilience and an impressive transformation.
Here are some of its most striking curiosities:
-
The “aviary” in the sea: La Pilona
walk along Malgrat Beach and you’ll spot a rusty iron structure rising from the water. Known as La Pilona, it once marked the end of an aerial cable system that transported iron from the Can Palomeres mines to ships offshore. A true engineering marvel of the early 20th century, it is now an iconic symbol of the town and a favourite resting place for cormorants. -
Castle Park: a balcony with a space-age lift
at the top of a hill in the town centre stands Parc del Castell. Beyond its 360° views, the real curiosity is its inclined panoramic lift. Free to use, it takes you from the historic centre to the peaceful gardens in under a minute. -
Francesc Macià Park: the land of giants
Malgrat is home to one of Catalonia’s most original parks. In Parc de Francesc Macià, everything is oversized: giant pencils, erasers as big as cars and huge sculptures of cakes and sweets. Adults feel tiny, children feel like they’ve stepped into a fairy tale. -
A church that looks like a cathedral
The Church of Sant Nicolau is known as the “Cathedral of the Coast”. Built in the 18th century, its imposing size and interior often surprise visitors, who mistake it for a cathedral despite the town’s modest scale. -
The origin of its name
according to popular legend, “Malgrat” comes from “mal grat”, meaning unpleasant, referring to the marshy land where the town was founded. Over time, those marshes became fertile orchards, now famous for the prized mongeta del ganxet bean. -
The Civil War shelter
beneath the church square lies a restored air-raid shelter from the Spanish Civil War. Open to visitors, it offers a powerful and moving glimpse into Malgrat’s strategic past. -
The Tordera Delta and flamingos
Malgrat marks the border between Barcelona and Girona provinces. After recent storms, the mouth of the Tordera River transformed into a new lagoon, now attracting flamingos and migratory birds never seen here before.
Costa del Maresme: peaceful beaches close to Barcelona
The Costa del Maresme, located just north of Barcelona, is an ideal destination if you want to combine relaxed beach days with easy access to one of Europe’s most exciting cities. Known for its long sandy beaches, family-friendly atmosphere and charming seaside towns, this stretch of coast offers a perfect balance between calm coastal living and cultural city breaks.
Make sure you visit:
- Calella, one of the liveliest resorts in the area, with a long promenade and great atmosphere.
- Santa Su****sanna, popular for its wide beaches and modern seafront.
- Mataró, the capital of the region, combining shopping areas with a historic old town.
- Arenys de Mar, a traditional fishing town with plenty of local character.
Beaches we think you’ll like:
- Calella Beach: long, well-equipped and perfect for families.
- Santa Susanna Beach: spacious and clean, ideal for relaxing walks.
- Ocata Beach: close to Barcelona, known for its fine sand and clear waters.
- Arenys de Mar Beach: smaller and more traditional, with a local feel.
Family-friendly activities:

- Walk or cycle along the coastal promenade connecting several towns.
- Explore nature trails in the nearby Parque Natural del Montnegre i el Corredor.

Dos días hubo espectáculo s nocturnos bastante buenos.
English (British)
It’s incredible that a hotel can have a lawn area like this. It’s just a small corner of the place. The sun loungers are a mess of earth. We’re talking about a fairly large area and the whole place feels dead. Extremely poor. The dirty glass panels on the façade give a very bad impression when you arrive. If these two things were addressed, the perception would improve a lot. It’s also not nice that you’re not understood in Spanish.
Only for foreigners who aren’t very demanding.
French
C’est incroyable qu’une zone de gazon soit autorisée comme celle de cet hôtel. Ce n’est qu’un petit coin de l’établissement. Les chaises longues ressemblent à une masse de terre. On parle d’une superficie assez vaste et tout le site est mort. Vraiment médiocre. Les vitres de la façade sont sale et donnent une très mauvaise impression à l’arrivée. Si ces deux points étaient résolus, la perception s’en trouverait grandement améliorée. Il n’est pas agréable non plus de ne pas être compris en espagnol.
Réservé aux étrangers pas trop exigeants.
Portuguese (Portugal)
É incrível que exista uma zona de relva como a deste hotel. É apenas uma pequena esquina do mesmo. As espreguiçadeiras estão cheias de terra. Estamos a falar de uma área relativamente grande e todo o espaço parece sem vida. Penoso. As fachadas de vidro da fachada, sujas, dão uma imagem muito má à chegada. Se estas duas coisas fossem resolvidas, a perceção melhoraria bastante. Também não é bom não serem entendidos em castelhano.
Apenas para estrangeiros que não são muito exigentes.

Es ist erstaunlich, dass es eine Rasenzone gibt wie in diesem Hotel. Es ist nur eine kleine Ecke davon. Die Liegen wirken wie ein Haufen Erde. Wir sprechen von einer ziemlich großen Fläche und der ganze Ort wirkt tot. Sehr bedauerlich. Die schmutzigen Glasfronten der Fassade hinterlassen beim Ankommen einen sehr schlechten Eindruck. Wenn diese beiden Dinge behoben würden, würde sich die Wahrnehmung deutlich verbessern. Außerdem gefällt es nicht, dass man kein Spanisch versteht.
Nur für Ausländer, die nicht sehr anspruchsvoll sind.
Italian
È incredibile che sia consentita una zona di prato come quella di questo hotel. È solo un angolo del posto. Le sedie a sdraio sembrano colme di terra. Parliamo di una zona piuttosto ampia e tutto il luogo è desolato. Molto deludente. Le vetrate della facciata, sporche, danno una cattiva impressione al tuo arrivo. Se queste due cose venissero risolte, la percezione migliorerebbe molto. Non è nemmeno piacevole non essere capiti in castigliano.
Solo per gli stranieri non particolarmente esigenti.
Es increíble que se permita una zona de césped como la que tiene este hotel. Solo con algún corrillo del mismo. Las hamacas encanta de tierra.Estamos hablando de bastante extension y todo el caso es muerto. Penosisimo. Las cristaleras de la fachada sucias dan una muy mala imagen cuando llegas. Sí estas dos cosas se solucionaran mejoraría bastante la percepción.Tampoco gusta que no te entiendan en castellano.
Solo para extranjeros no muy exigentes.

Las habitaciones estaban bien. Puntuadas en un buenas porque siempre podían haber sido más grandes y haber tenido aire acondicionado. Las instalaciones y las piscinas muy recomendables, sobre todo para viajar con niños
The food disappointed me at all. A sparse buffet aimed at foreigners. The food was not good at all, too much American fare and not enough Spanish. The service was acceptable, but there were too many staff who did not speak Spanish.
No me ha gustado para nada la comida. Un buffet escaso y destinado a extranjeros. La comida no ha sido para nada buena, demasiada comida americana y poco española. El trato ha sido correcto, pero demasiados trabajadores sin hablar castellano.

Me ha gustado la zona de piscina y la cercanía de la playa, también la animación
Part of the staff was unfriendly, rooms had windows that wouldn’t close and anyone could enter the room... We were told water and wine were included, but they gave us machine tap water instead of mineral water, which was only given to some people, and they were very attentive to what we drank.
Parte del personal antipático, habitaciones con ventanas que no cerraban y podía entrar cualquiera a la habitación...Llevábamos agua y vino incluido y nos dieron agua de máquina en lugar de agua mineral que se lo daban solo a algunas personas y muy pendiente de lo que tomábamos

El parque acuatico para los niños (y los que no somos tan niños), lo encuentro fabuloso. Divertidisimo.
El personal encantador todos.
The buffet is a little limited, though very acceptable for the price quality ratio, much better than others.
The entertainment could do with a bit more of a party vibe at night.
El bufet un poco justito, aunque muy aceptable y por calidad precio, mucho mejor que otros.

The food is normal, good but with little variety. One vegetable dish, a grilled beef or pork option, and another fish dish. Breakfast is better.

La proximidad a la playa y las piscinas del hotel. La habitación correcta y las camas muy comodas.El buffet muy bueno.
The staff at the hotel were very serious, and at reception everyone spoke in English. As foreigners, we almost felt like we were the locals. On the second night, the cleaning service didn’t even leave us the little soap bars for the next day’s shower. These aren’t the kinds of details I expect from a higher-rated four-star hotel, to be honest.
El trato del personal del hotel, muy serios y en recepción todos hablan en ingles. Los extranjeros casi que parecemos nosotros.La segunda noche el servicio de limpieza ni nos dejo los jaboncitos para la ducha del dia siguiente. No son los detalles que espero de un hotel de cuatro estrella superior la verdad.
