  • Beach


Its limits to the north the Olympic Port and to the south the breakwater of the Gas or Geneva.

It is possible to say that, in the coast of the city, this beach incarnates, among other values, the recovery of the historical memory. Not many years ago, this section of the coast, along with a part of the Barceloneta beach and the current beaches of Nova Icaria and Bogatell, hosted the Somorrostro shanty quarter, where they lived to live about 15,000 people in very precarious conditions.

Somorrostro Beach is currently one of the most emblematic beaches in the city.
It is 114 meters wide and 522 meters long. At the far east you will find the Olympic Port and the peculiar Frank O. Gehry fish sculpture.
Back in the sea there are some porches, where Espai de Mar is located, equipment designed to facilitate access to the beach and the marine environment, through the promotion of the inclusive practice of sport and leisure.

On the beach of Somorrostro, access and enjoyment is provided to all users, and especially those who have some limitations on their mobility. In the vicinity of the beach there are reserved parking spaces with accessible itineraries to the dry beach, signs and visual and tactile information, adapted toilets, wood passages that arrive as close as possible to the water (although in no case will touch it since the currents could come off the module) and showers adapted with chairs. It also has adapted public transport that facilitates access.

How is it going

On the porches is the Center of the Beach .
In Biomarató of 2018 was a great biodiversity. Here is the Marine Biodiversity report on the beaches of Barcelona Biomarató 2018
