Badalona

Platja dels Pescadors, in Badalona, is an urban spot easily accessible north of Barcelona. It is a wide beach, with relatively simple navigation when the wind is well oriented, and it mainly attracts local riders outside of the high season.

The spot operates in a very exposed setting, with space to rig and launch on the sand. The atmosphere is more local than touristy, and conditions can become technical as soon as the swell or shorebreak rises.

Location

Detailed information

The spot of Badalona - Platja dels Pescadors mainly works with a side-on to side-shore wind depending on the orientation, allowing for clean navigation along the beach. Specialized guides indicate that kitesurfing is allowed outside of high season, which is important to verify before any session. Launching takes place on a wide sandy beach, with a possible launch area directly from the shore, but it is necessary to keep space as the beach gets crowded as soon as the weather improves.

When the garbí wind blows, the spot can be interesting as it is often well established in this sector of the Barcelona coast. However, with a levante wind, navigation can become more demanding: the wind remains usable, but the orientation and presence of waves make outings less comfortable. The water surface is generally easier in regular wind conditions without heavy swell, and more technical as soon as the sea comes in. Launching and retrieving the kite requires staying vigilant, especially in an urban area where available space can be limited on certain days.

For intermediate riders, the spot offers a good option for coastal navigation when conditions are clean. For beginners, it is better to choose a stable day, with few people and steady wind, as the shorebreak can complicate the first part of the session. The spot is therefore especially interesting for a short and effective urban practice, with a higher level of attention than a completely open beach.
