Positive experience: Good space to sunbathe and swim, without too much crowding. Paid parking for cars and free for motorcycles.
Positive experience: Beautiful and quiet beach to enjoy with furry friends, pebbly sand, easier to shake off in my opinion. The 4 stars is because they don't have showers and as a downside, be careful with the path where there is grass, there are quite a few of these little prickly balls that get stuck especially on long-haired dogs.
Positive experience: There aren't too many people, maybe because parking is paid and they are always giving out fines haha
Fantastic experience: I like it after 8 PM, you can park closer to the beach, swimming is unbothered, clean and open restrooms, and quite a few beach bars to snack on some tapas and have a good time. Everything is simple, pleasant, and close.
Fantastic experience: Praia cerca de Barcelona, tem chiringuitos bastante movimentados no verão, alguns Parks para as crianças e um belo.mar pra disfrutar em qualquer hora. O entardecer por aqui é um horário pra lá de especial.

Negative experience: Han deshabilitado la playa de perros por falta de arena... informan allí justo al llegar a pie de playa pero si aparcas por alrrededores tienes el riesgo de pagar y ver el cartel luego como me pasó a mi.
Negative experience: I think it's terrible that they have removed this dog beach overnight... on top of that, Google still lists it as such... you come here from far away and find out that it's not... Very bad on the part of the city council... I believe this beach is large enough for it to remain a dog beach. It is the people who destroy the beaches, not the dogs who have no evil in them. It's a disgrace... to have people dissatisfied... we're going from bad to worse.
Positive experience: Genial playa , muy tranquila y familiar. También tiene una zona para perros.
Fantastic experience: Gran playa, sin mucha acumulación de personas y playa de perros incluida. Muy recomendable.
Negative experience: La zona de aparcamiento es de pago todo el año, los perros están prohibidos da igual la temporada que sea, lugar de urbanización, no hay comercios solo un restaurante llamado la caleta

Positive experience: There used to be more beach, the sea has taken half of the sand.

Positive experience: Spacious with great sand and extraordinary sea. Great place to spend a day on a beach. It's one of my favorite places on Costa Brava close to Barcelona.
Negative experience: Han deshabilitado la playa de perros por falta de arena... informan allí justo al llegar a pie de playa pero si aparcas por alrrededores tienes el riesgo de pagar y ver el cartel luego como me pasó a mi.
Negative experience: It's a shame they don't replenish the beach after the storms. The last time, it left the beach completely bare, even with rocks and underground cables visible. They didn't put up any tape or protection, and the drop was about 2 meters. Very dangerous.

Fantastic experience: Praia cerca de Barcelona, tem chiringuitos bastante movimentados no verão, alguns Parks para as crianças e um belo.mar pra disfrutar em qualquer hora. O entardecer por aqui é um horário pra lá de especial.
Positive experience: Es una de las pocas playas del Maresme que no tiene la carretera ni la vía del tren justo al lado. Pero por contra solo hay una calle de acceso y todo el aparcamiento es de zona azul. Así que el coste de ir a la playa es elevado. Hay varios chiringuitos y algún restaurante cerca que se come bien.
Fantastic experience: The beach is spacious, not many people, and has a good beach bar. Currently, the sand slopes down sharply to reach the sea.
Fantastic experience: It is a beautiful and wide beach. There is a promenade for walking, running..., and some restaurants where you eat very well. If we look for the downside, everything is blue zone.

Positive experience: Platja llarga i àmplia, d'immediata profunditat i amb aigua neta i de sorra granulada i fàcil de treure. La platja ofereix servei de dutxes (actualment inexistent per la sequera que estem patint) i també disposa de socorrista. Si vols gaudir d'aquesta platja, és millor arribar-hi en tren perquè totes les places de pàrking properes són de zona blava. Ara bé, pagar és sinònim de públic respectuós i tranquil.litat a la platja.
Positive experience: Increïble platja d'aigua cristal·lina i sorra gruixuda que és desprèn fàcilment del cos. L'aparcament és una qüestió de paciència. Té una caseta de socorrista. Tenen una cadira de bany per a les persones de mobilitat reduïda que ho necessitin, però la tenen compartida per a tota la platja i s'ha de sol·licitar. El passeig és curt però agradable.
Fantastic experience: Seguridad y Servicio de Vuestro Socorrista Mario! Acceso para gente discapacitada! Aparcamiento seguro y En tiempo y forma! Lavados limpios y con buen acceso! Acceso a la playa por camino para silla de ruedas! Muy conforme el Momento qué hemos disfrutado con Mí Esposa Liliana!!!
Fantastic experience: Es una playa muy bonita con arena fina a las cercanías del maresma. Es la mejor zona del maresma: zona playa porque no se nota el tren, ni se ve. Tiene servicio de socorrista, parques infantiles un paseo marítimo. Fui cuando había viento y estaba la marea muy brava con bandera amarilla. El mar es Bravo y te pilla la ola y es como una lavadora, me dio un golpe en la cabeza ( leve ) mar muy bravo te tira un poco hacía dentro ir con cuidado te descuidas y casi mueres :0
Negative experience: La playa está muy bien, pero es una vergüenza que haya zona azul. Si se te pasa el ticket por lo que sea, multan sin contemplaciones. Supongo que también será por nuestra seguridad, como los radares.

Fantastic experience: Quite clean and the water is crystal clear, you can see the fish.

Fantastic experience: Amazing beach, clear water, perfect temperature, calm, not crowded...the only downside is the slope, but it does not take away from its value. I love it!!!

San Vicente de Montalt Beach: Reviews
Positive experience: Perfect, very clean
Positive experience: Artificial sand that the sea takes away. A beach different from the most famous ones in Maresme. Fewer foreigners and more locals. Some buildings with a lot of history.
Fantastic experience: Very clean and with services.
Fantastic experience: Sea beach
Positive experience: We were taking a walk and looking at the sea; the tranquility was appreciated.
Positive experience: Good space to sunbathe and swim, without too much crowding. Paid parking for cars and free for motorcycles.
Positive experience: It's one of those that cover as soon as you enter. It's not very good for children.
Positive experience: There used to be more beach, the sea has taken half of the sand.

Fantastic experience: Very beach
Positive experience: There aren't too many people, maybe because parking is paid and they are always giving out fines haha
Negative experience: A shame this summer. It's not beach sand, it's dirt and moreover with a slope that has no name. The town hall of St. Vicenç is only interested in collecting, not investing. The beach of Llavaneres or Caldetes surpasses it a thousand times.
Fantastic experience: We went to the local parties, and with how small it is, it's nice to see how well they organize things. I have to congratulate everyone who worked for this event! I will definitely return.
Positive experience: Spacious with great sand and extraordinary sea. Great place to spend a day on a beach. It's one of my favorite places on Costa Brava close to Barcelona.

Positive experience: Nice beach with kids' playground. Perfect for families, and the charming little bar serves refreshing drinks and snacks. It’s an ideal spot for a relaxing and enjoyable day out.

Positive experience: Es una pena que el mar se ha llevado casi toda la playa
Negative experience: Me gustaba más cuando era "Caldetas" que siendo Sant vicent de montalt Antes pagaba por aparcar en la zona situación surrealista ya que si el vehículo sufre algún altercado de orden público nadie se hace cargo... Ahora además si tengo suerte y logro aparcar ya sea en zona verde o azul no estoy pagando por aparcar si no que estoy aparcando por ir a la playa y depende del tiempo que este ir a la playa tiene precios distintos. Pasar mañana y tarde sobre los 10 euros sin tener opción a que vigilen el coche o bien las cosas en la playa..
Negative experience: Han deshabilitado la playa de perros por falta de arena... informan allí justo al llegar a pie de playa pero si aparcas por alrrededores tienes el riesgo de pagar y ver el cartel luego como me pasó a mi.
Fantastic experience: Playa amplia,en esta época del año Enero, Febrero,Marzo las olas y tormentas hacen que encuentres troncos ,y por el oleaje y saque sus rocas , particularmente es una imagen que me encanta,poder fotografiar
Positive experience: I love the beach, the only thing is that the blue zone is very expensive 1 hour 3€!!
Negative experience: I think it's terrible that they have removed this dog beach overnight... on top of that, Google still lists it as such... you come here from far away and find out that it's not... Very bad on the part of the city council... I believe this beach is large enough for it to remain a dog beach. It is the people who destroy the beaches, not the dogs who have no evil in them.

Fantastic experience: The beach is spacious, not many people, and has a good beach bar. Currently, the sand slopes down sharply to reach the sea.
Positive experience: The parking and the blue zone charge until 10:00 PM from Monday to Sunday... ALL YEAR round, being a public area it is an abuse. There is weeds in the sand, no water in the showers, and they removed the park... this beach is losing its appeal...
Fantastic experience: I live in that town, it is very beautiful mainly its beach.
Negative experience: Horrible, the beach has disappeared, the price of parking is outrageous and it is full of uneducated and scary foreigners.
Fantastic experience: I really liked it
Positive experience: What a shame to see the state of the beach. There is hardly any beach left.
Fantastic experience: Very family-friendly. Without a doubt, my favorite nearby beach. It is true that there is a blue zone, but for enjoying a day, it is worth it.
Positive experience: A few years ago, the beach remained immaculate even after storms... Unfortunately, this year the cleaning leaves much to be desired. Plant waste poorly collected, cigarette butts, plastic residues, papers, etc. You can find everything on the beach! This year (2023) it’s good again! March 2024: where is the beach? The sea has swept everything away...
Fantastic experience: Sant Vicent de Montalt offers a unique experience for lovers of the sea and tranquility. Its beautiful promenade complements the serenity of the surroundings, while the crystal-clear waters invite you to immerse yourself in an oasis of peace. Ideal for those looking to enjoy nature and recharge their energies by the coast.
Fantastic experience: Spectacular views
Fantastic experience: It’s fine, but the negative part is that even on a Sunday in January, you have to pay to walk and see the sea. This municipality is taking advantage of public spaces and making people pay.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful, clean, divine
Positive experience: Very nice, spacious beach. Parking fees only until 8 PM, suitable for large motorhomes as well. However, it can be very, very loud and heavily trafficked at night on weekends. But highly recommended for a day visit to the beach.
Fantastic experience: The beach of St. Vicenç de Montalt is simply spectacular. Its crystal-clear waters and golden sand create a paradisiacal environment to relax and enjoy the sun. Moreover, its calm and picturesque atmosphere makes it the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. I can't wait to go back and enjoy this little corner of paradise once again!
Fantastic experience: A beautiful beach, clean and with crystal clear water that invites constant bathing.
Positive experience: Nice place to swim. Most of the parking is paid parking.
Fantastic experience: Knowing what this beach is like in summer, with a lot of staff and the logical festive atmosphere of the place.... taking a walk in the middle of autumn along the long coastline "savoring" the sound of the sea and the peace of the place is totally recommended for the body and mind.... you leave comforted and thinking about repeating the experience. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Few people and quiet
Fantastic experience: It is a beautiful and wide beach. There is a promenade for walking, running..., and some restaurants where you eat very well. If we look for the downside, everything is blue zone.
Fantastic experience: One of my favorite places in Maresme. It has paying parking and located a bit far from Barcelona but it makes it not so crowded, spacious and convenient. Would highly recommend for families with kids.
Positive experience: Nice beach, got the showers, cafes and kids play area. Little showers, bad smell sometimes and steep and not flat. Dirty water with big waves snd little visibility.. There are better beaches
Negative experience: No beach left nearly gone with erosion.
Positive experience: Nice place. Really missing a dog place. Careful with the police...like vampires if you are not from the town....!
Negative experience: Not a nice beach, sand's to dusty. Blue zone parking, it means you must pay every two hours. Clean and transparent water. Very expensive restaurants and beach bars, but quality food and drinks offered. Sea inflatable games and sea platform to rest
Positive experience: Nice area for beach time with or without children. Family time or romantic dinner in the beach restaurants
