Sand reclaimed

Until recently, factories and other industrial sites here extended almost down to the shoreline. Llevant beach is the result of uncovering the sand following the removal of the cement blocks in the Prim breakwater during the redevelopment of the Diagonal Mar area.

It is the most recently created beach and has been open since 2006. This explains why there are not many facilities there. In fact, there is not even a beach bar, a chiringuito. One of the few facilities is a volleyball area to the west, next to the breakwater separating it from the Nova Mar Bella beach.

Relaxation and peace and quiet

Still, if you are looking for relaxation and peace and quiet, this is the best beach for being on your own, with your partner or with the family, without having to leave Barcelona.

Next to Mar Bella and around 374 metres long, this is an urban beach with the modern Diagonal Mar as a backdrop. Although it is some way out, it is easy to get to by car because there is a disused piece of land next to it that serves as a car park.
