Tips if you are going to do Paddle Boarding in Barcelona

One of the provinces best recognized for its tranquil beaches and blue waters is Barcelona. Its modern and youthful environment makes it an excellent tourist destination for people seeking a Mediterranean climate without travelling outside the peninsula.

Its diverse beaches allow visitors to partake in a range of water activities such as jet skiing, kayaking, and beach volleyball. But there is one activity in particular that has grown in popularity and is a genuine delight to undertake in Barcelona: paddle surfing.

There are many beaches in Barcelona that are ideal for this fun and peaceful sport, from renting paddle surf boards to private lessons. So, if you're thinking about going paddle surfing in Barcelona, we will tell you all about it.

Where to paddle surf in Barcelona?


SUP in Barcelona city:


- La Barceloneta: The most well-known beach in the city, home to Barcelona's gorgeous promenade, where millions of tourists stroll throughout the year, taking in the stunning views of the Mediterranean. It is a famous beach for sportspersons and fitness enthusiasts who jog and enjoy aquatic activities.

Paddle surfing in La Barceloneta is a great way to enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere while also getting some exercise under the bright Catalan sun. Its size allows you to do it in a relaxed manner, making it ideal for individuals who are just getting started with this sport.

- Somorrostro: To the north of the city, there is an exquisite beach known as the Olympic Village Beach. It used to be part of La Barceloneta, and because it is so close to the city, it is one of the most popular beaches among locals. Its crystal blue waters are ideal for a terrific paddle surfing session and quality family time. It also features a diverse range of eateries and recreational facilities where you may unwind after your exercise.

- Bogatell, Mar Bella, Nova Mar, and Llevante: Four beaches north of the city that is easily accessible on foot thanks to the promenade that runs beside them. These sites were created or used for the 1992 Olympic Games and are well-known for their sporting facilities. Paddle surfing is a must on any of these beaches because the vibe is lively and sporty.

The waves are calm and blue, and there are several places to hire a board and paddle around in the Mediterranean. Large beach volleyball courts, a skatepark, and fitness grounds may all be found just metres from the beaches. They are, without a question, the preferred location for those who appreciate the sport in a natural setting.

SUP north of Barcelona:


- Badalona: Located 20 minutes north of the capital, Badalona is a popular Catalan tourist destination. Different beaches can be found in this lovely city where you may learn to paddle surf on your own or with training. The beach in Badalona begins with Playa del Coco and goes through Playa Central, Playa de los Pescadores, Playa de la Estación, and until you reach the end where you will find Playa de la Estación de Cristal. Any of them would be ideal for this exercise, so if you find yourself in this part of Barcelona, don't hesitate to give it a try.

- Mataró: If we continue our journey to the north, we will reach the beaches of this Catalan municipality like Sant Simó Beach, one that is furthest from the city. It is perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and you can enjoy the crystal-clear waters that border the coast of Barcelona. You will also find the beaches of Premiá de Mar, all very similar and characterised by their golden sand.

- Calella: The Costa de Maresma is located between Badalona and the Costa Brava, leaving Mataró. Calella's beaches may be found here, the most central of which is Platja Gran, positioned in front of Calella's lovely promenade, Passeig Manuel Puigvert. If you are looking for a more secluded beach, we suggest Platja de les Roques. Paddle surfing is an adventure here, as you will find crystal blue waters surrounded by pine forests, and what's even more magical is paddle surfing at sunset. It truly is an once-in-a-lifetime experience.

- Costa Brava: This majestic and well-known shore begins as you pass Blanes. If you are looking for a great place to go paddleboarding in Barcelona, look no further than Lloret de Mar. Although it is in the province of Girona, Lloret de Mar is one of the most popular destinations for locals because it's only an hour away. It is also a popular resort for young people, offering a variety of water activities and vibrant nightlife. If you want to experience paddle surfing in a more familiar and serene environment, we recommend the magnificent coves of Platja de Fenals and Cala Sa Boadella, which have transparent and calm waters.

SUP south of Barcelona:


- Castelldefels: Only a short distance south of the capital is this vast golden sandy beach that is ideal for a variety of water-based activities. Paddling on a surf board on one of the island's beaches is a wonderfully pleasant activity to get away from the city's commotion and also burn calories. Baixador Beach is the most popular and located in the municipality's southern section. Playa de Lluminetes is in the centre, followed by Playa de Pineda, home to Castelldefels' famous white sand dunes.

- Playa del Garraf: After travelling down the southern coast and passing through the Garraf Natural Park, we arrive at this lovely beach. Playa del Garraf is distinguished by its white and green huts that reflect the area's vintage aesthetic. It is a small cove considered to be one of the best beaches of Catalonia, with tranquil crystalline waters ideal for paddle surfing.

- Sitges: As we near the end of our journey to the south of Barcelona, we arrive at one of the province's most well-known destinations. This gorgeous beach, known as the 'pearl of the Garraf,' is only 40 minutes from the city. This beach, with its 4 kilometres of coastline, is ideal for a trip with family or friends.

Sitges is a lovely area in Barcelona and is the perfect place to get away from the city and enjoy the Mediterranean climate on a paddleboard. You'll paddle while admiring the splendour of the castle directly on the beach, as well as the charming old town that defines this coastal town. Furthermore, its waterways have been granted the blue flag for their cleanliness and transparency. This means you'll not only be sailing in Barcelona's clearest waters, but you'll also be able to see the fish swim beside your board.

As you can see, the Barcelona coast is ideal for paddle surfing. But it is important to remember that paddle surfing isn't just for seawater; it can also be done in lakes. As a result, we recommend visiting the Sau Reservoir, located in the Guilleries - Savasona Natural Area. In a natural setting that is very different from the coast, you will have a lovely paddle surfing session in the tranquil waters of the reservoir.

In brief, water sports such as paddle surfing are relatively accessible in Barcelona, thanks to the beaches that make up the province's shore. So don't be afraid to take a paddle surfing lesson or hire a board at one of the beaches we've suggested; we're confident you will enjoy it!
