Montgat beach is 12 kilometers north-east of Barcelona. It is easily reachable by train within 18 minutes from Placa Catalunya.

For even more space on the beach stay on the train up to Montgat nord. The train station is literally next to the beach which here is 2.8 kilometres long and around 30-40 metres wide.

You will find much less people and fewer beach vendors than in Barcelona which makes Mongat Beach more crowded than Barcelona's city beaches of Barceloneta or Nova Icaria.

Some parts of the beach are really spectacular

Some small Chiringuitos (beach bar/cafes) on the beach play music and serve cold drinks and snacks.

Water quality: The water is fairly clear with good visibility.

Showers? :Yes, Montgat beach disposes of fresh water
