Malgrat de Mar, on the coast of Barcelona, is internationally known as a Family Tourism destination, as the population has a wide range of activities and leisure for both adults and children.
Francesc Macià park is one of the best parks on the Maresme coast to go with children. It has sports areas, children's play areas for all ages, an amphitheater and picnic and rest areas. In addition, during the summer months, the park is open until 11 p.m., so that parents can quietly enjoy an ice cream while the children play on the swings.
Another park to visit with the family is Parc del Castell, located in one of the highest areas of Malgrat de Mar. In there, you can find Torre del Castell, an old watchtower against pirates where today you can enjoy views privileged of the entire population.
The coast of Barcelona boasts of long beaches that go from the Tordera river to the town of Montgat. Malgrat de Mar has more than 4 kilometers of unspoiled coastline to enjoy a day at the beach with the family playing in the water and building sandcastles. Choose between the beaches of Malgrat de Mar and take advantage of the sun and good temperatures!
Tordera river’s Delta area is perfect for exploring both on foot and by bicycle and observing the characteristic fauna and flora of the Maresme coast. Another perfect place to visit with the family is Pla de Grau, a large protected agricultural area where garden products such as escarole or "fesol del ganxet" are grown, a variety of white beans with a protected designation of origin that is only grown in this area.
If you want to make the most of your holidays, during the summer months you can enjoy endless fun by visiting one of the water parks located near the town of Malgrat de Mar. The water parks of Illa Fantasia (in Vilassar de Mar), Water World (in Lloret de Mar) or Marineland (in Palafolls) are perfect for the whole family.
In addition to all this, during the months of July and August the Miniclub is installed on the Astillero beach, a children’s playroom with a play area for all children between 4 and 12 years old and a foam party every Friday. Endless fun for the little ones just a few steps from Papi Hotels!
