    You can relax, play volleyball, sunbathe, eat, drink... The view is very cool. Close to scooter and bike rentals, city buses or smaller pubs if you're here at night. There is no noise, just the sound of the waves and the sound of the bouncing volleyball.

    The sea and the sandy beach look beautiful and the water looks clean. There is no entry free but I wish it was ran by better managements; the prices are so high. They charge you 10 Euros for one sunbed and 10 Euros for umbrella. There are no changing cabines and the toilets are super dirty amd very very small. There are local sellers constantly walking around you and asking you whether you want to buy beer or water,… and it’s not just them, I saw a masseuse walking around and giving ppl massages.

    This seemed to be the quieter/ less busy of the beaches even though it has volleyball nets. It has clean toilets / changing rooms and outdoor showers too. There are lots of places to eat or drink nearby.

    Really nice beach and convenient services (several bus lines stops near there) equipped with free showers and toilets, with restaurants and bar. Nice the children-climbing attraction. Water and sand usually clean, even if little beach with reduced capacity.

    Such a beautiful beach. We had a really lovely time. We visited it in the evening and saw a lot of people quietly enjoying time with their families and friends. It was awesone. We also set up for a picnic and had a lovely time. The sand is amazing and the beach was really clean!

    Nice beach to hang out with your friends or work out. Sand and water are clean, you can see that. Usually less crowded during the week. In summer is of course busy. There are volleyball pitches and free showers, lots of bars also but here unfortunately drinks are not free you have to pay with your cold hard cash.

    Oh, I totally get it! Having high hopes for Barcelona Beach is totally natural. It's a bummer that people are smoking on a smoke-free beach – that can spoil the vibe for sure. And no working showers? Ugh, that's a hassle when you want to freshen up after a dip in the sea. It'd be so much better with functioning facilities. And that strange smell all over the beach? Not cool at all. It takes away from the lovely beach atmosphere you'd expect. But hey, don't worry too much! It happens, and sometimes things don't turn out as we hope. Maybe leaving some feedback could help them improve the beach experience for everyone. Fingers crossed they can make some positive changes for future visitors! 🏖️😊

    Quiet beach with two bars behind you. Some people go nude and we got an umbrella and two chairs for €30 (all day). Totally worth it.

  • 5/5 Catherine C. 1 year ago on Google
    went here one night and collected seashells while listening to the glee soundtrack and sipping on 3 euro sangria. what a night to remember! then the next day i went to the SAME beach! im so crase! it was lovely and not as crowded as the barceloneta beach and there were not as many bachelor/bachelorette parties. im so happy for people for getting married but lets be honest these babes are gonna be divorced within 3 years OR stuck in an unhappy marriage with a kid they both don't like. anyways i went to the mcdonalds nearby to take a meeting and steal their free wifi then came back and laid on the beach until i was pink! a lovely time

  • 4/5 Daniela M. 2 years ago on Google
    Not the best beach to swim or sun bath but nice to walk or go running or stop by any beach bars. It's a bit too crowded as there is the windsurfing school nearby and playgrounds for kids as well as gym tolls for adults. But always less people that Barceloneta as is father down ...

    Beautiful and well-attended sandy beach. Extremely well frequented and quite crowded in summer. If you want peace and quiet, this is the wrong place.

    It's such a lovely beach. Very easy to get to. I went on without paying any fees. You can take your 🏖️ umbrella so you don't have to pay a few. It's less crowded in September compare to summer months

    I took my two daughters and my mother here for a day at the beach. It was good and bad. Maybe not really bad, just confusing. It cost €45 for two chairs and a broken umbrella that would not stay all the way up. I find that a bit expensive, but I’m not a beach person, so maybe it was ok. The bar on the beach was expensive, but not outrageous. I asked the security guard if I can drink on the beach - he said yes. The overhead announcements made me think otherwise, but I figured the security guy who was enforcing the rules was okay with it. They had people walking up and down on the beach offering cheaper beer than the bar. Apparently only some of them can sell. I’m not sure which ones, but the security guy chased some away. I met sone amazing kids (31 year olds), from Birmingham who were absolutely amazing and friendly. The water was awesome. The sand too. Too bad about me forgetting to reapply sunscreen.

    (Translated by Google) Given that in Barcelona all the beaches are loose and they were packed for the 1992 Olympics, the beach is magnificent! BUT, to Barcelona they go not to the beach, but to the beach they go not to Barcelona, ​​but to the magnificent suburbs of Barcelona, ​​the best of which is the Costa Daurada! (Original) Учитывая что в Барселоне все пляжи насыпные и насыпались они к Олимпиаде 1992 года, то пляж великолепный! НО, в Барселону едут не на пляж, а на пляж едут не в Барселону, а в великолепные пригороды Барселоны лучшим из которых является Коста-Дорада!

  • 5/5 Tugce C. 1 year ago on Google
    Bed&Umbrella are expensive. Before coming to the beach I recommend you to buy an umbrella and towel from the chain markets or chinese shops in the downtown. Do not pay more than 15 euros for an umbrella in the shops. Beach pareos costs between 5 and 10 euros. This is a clean beach and also sea is great. You can also sunbathe topless here. Not too crowded. It is good place for families, solo travelers and women. Enjoy the sun and sea in the Platja de la Nova Icaria!

  • 4/5 Xavi O. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) We went there for a walk, and for a winter morning on St. Stephen's Day. The promenade is wide and clean, ideal for a family to enjoy the beach of Barcelona and its visual appeal. And for the kids, you have the appeal of sand, which for them is already a unique game option. (Original) Hi vam anar per passejar, i per passar un matí d'hivern del dia de Sant Esteve. El passeig és ample i net, ideal per anar en família per gaudir de la platja de Barcelona i dels seus atractius visuals. I pels nens, teniu l'atractiu de la sorra, que per ells ja es una opció de joc única.

    After working all week , can't even go at the beach and relax because is full of tourists. Sone restaurants only prefer cash instead of card, and tourists instead of locals.

    Family friendly beach, not overly crowded. Ice cold in June but absolutely worth the plunge

  • 3/5 Sophie 9 months ago on Google
    A bit average as far as beaches in the Mediterranean go, but close enough to the city to make it a worthwhile visit if you fancy a swim. Sand and water weren’t the cleanest.

  • 3/5 Alexey K. 9 months ago on Google
    No place to change clothes (well there is one on a map but it is closed), 15 euro for a chair, dirty water and jellyfish. Otherwise a wide nice place to stroll, not as crowded as other beaches.

  • 4/5 Joshua C. 9 months ago on Google
    Great beach! Wasn’t crowded when we went. Bathrooms are small and lots of hawkers who walk around.

  • 4/5 Adnan R. 9 months ago on Google
    Nice beach , clean . Best to come early in the day and get a good spot . 15euro to rent umbrella , maybe best to buy one if you are planning to come to beach for few days it would be heaper . Vendors were ok , they ask you for couple of times and then leave you alone .

  • 5/5 Chia Chi L. 6 months ago on Google
    Close to the bus stop. there's some bar next to the beach which provide some refreshing drinks and sunchairs. it's shame there's no water for a wash due to draught in the city when we visit in Oct. it's not less crowed than Barcelona beach and the less rubbish. the family can fully enjoy!

    (Translated by Google) Yes, this is complete tin, yesterday I was on a nearby beach and everything was fine, but I wanted a smoother descent into the water and a sandy bottom for children. In the end, I found this, but in the appendage and a bunch of nasty garbage in the water: bags, feathers, algae, styrofoam, adhesive plasters, a plastic glass and other incomprehensible things. How it is all there, but on the other beach is absent, I do not understand very well. They are separated only by a small type of port. (Original) Да это полная жесть, вчера был на соседнем пляже и все было нормально, но хотел более плавный спуск в воду и песчанное дно для детей. В итоге нашел это, но в довесок и кучу противного мусора в воде: пакеты,перья,водоросли,пенопласт,лейкопластыри,пластиковый стакан и другие непонятные вещи. Каким образом это все там присутствует, а на другом пляже отсутствует, я не оч понимаю.Разделяет их лишь маленький типа порт.

    (Translated by Google) I was a Saint John, and the truth, among the masses of people, and that every two by three rockets and firecrackers fell on people, I thought that I had traveled in time and was on the beach of Normandy.

    Sandy beach, next to the city. It is very, very crowded, so if you are not into that, go elswhere. There are also sellers, who want to sell you some stuff, like beer or beach towel, and sometimes they are very pushy. Toilets are pure nightmare. No changing rooms. Nice beach bars with variety of drinks and food.

  • 5/5 KAIN 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The beach is very nice and most importantly clean, fine sand, warm and clean water, great views, the downside is the number of tourists in the summer, but unfortunately this is normal in any such places, it is worth taking a walk along the shore and see all the beaches in Barcelona. The port of Barcelona is also eye-catching, I recommend it 100%. It is worth checking in advance where the parking spaces are, because it is hard to find a free space near the beaches, I advise against parking in prohibited places because it will end up very quickly, the number of police at the beaches is overwhelming. (Original) Plaża bardzo ładna i co najważniejsze czysta , piasek drobniutki , woda cieplutka i czysta , świetne widoki , minusem jest ilość turystów w okresie letnim ale to niestety normalne w każdym tego typu miejscach , warto się przespacerować wzdłuż brzegu i zobaczyć wszystkie plaże w Barcelonie . Port w Barcelonie też przyciąga wzrok , polecam w 100% . Warto wcześniej sprawdzić gdzie są miejsca parkingowe bo przy plaże ciężko o wolne miejsce , odradzam parkowanie w niedozwolonych miejscach bo skończy się to bardzo szybko mandatem , ilość policji przy plażach jest przytłaczająca .
