On the beach with children

When the good weather arrives, the beach is one of the tourist attractions that everyone likes, especially families with children, since the huge variety of seaside activities on offer guarantee hours of playtime, physical exercise and entertainment. What's more, on the Costa Barcelona there are six towns that hold the Family Holiday Destination seal, which means they're particularly attentive to children's needs. Would you like to know which ones they are?

Urban palaces and holiday homes, churches and hospitals, warehouses and gardens, factories and cellars, all with the signature of the great architects of the movement in Catalonia: Antoni Gaudí, Lluís Domènech i Montaner, and Josep Puig i Cadafalch, among others. To commemorate this cultural trend, different towns and cities are organizing festivals and fairs to recover their aesthetic quality. Want to find out more about them?

<p>Museu del Traginer d'Igualada</p>

Muleteers, ragpickers, stampers, weavers, tanners, potters, paper makers... The world has changed so much over the last hundred years that we sometimes forget that there didn’t use to be app developers, community managers or drone operators. Fortunately, there’s is an extremely effective antidote to such ignorance and forgetfulness! The museums that tell us about the jobs of our grandparents and help us understand who we are and where we come from.

<p>Maresme from the Sant Mateu viewpoint</p>

Between Vallès and Maresme lies the Serralada Litoral (coastal range), a protected area between large city centres. An ideal place to breathe in some fresh air, exercise and enjoy the stunning views over the sea and the Maresme region. We suggest two routes between the inland and the beach, i.e. between Vallès and Maresme, to contemplate the blue horizon.

<p>Castell de Claramunt</p>

L'Anoia és una comarca per redescobrir, i la millor forma, és fer-ho caminant. El seu paisatge encara agrícola convida a la calma i a mirar l'horitzó. Deixa't impressionar per les seves torres i castells i ressegueix la història dels seus protagonistes. Et proposem tres rutes aptes per a tota la família, si esteu acostumats a caminar.
