I think that Malgrat De Mar is an awesome place, I really missed out last year not going. Me and my family used to go for a month or so in the six weeks holiday and we'd meet up with my aunty who lives in Barcelona and her friends and some of the family would come over too, got a little hectic though as there were 14 people top in one flat, only 3 bedrooms lol.
Malgrat is perfectly situated, and its not a far to get to eh train station. From the train station you can travel to the many more places along the coast due to it being a coastal railway. These places include places like Llorett de mar, Blanes, Canet de mar, Pineda, Calella, San Pol de mar, Arenys de mar and Tossa de mar.
The beach is good to, its well kept and the sea is almost always nice apart from when the waves come but if you enjoy riding the waves in a blow up then go right ahead, you can, it is such an amazing thing to do. Most of the hotels are on the sea front so its only about a 5 minute walk to the beach, the others behind it will still only take you about 5 minutes, 7 minutes top.
There is plenty for people to look at, like the shops on the front (beware!: most of these sell fake items such as fake leather and small things such as pokémon card and the latest electronics may seem cheap but beware, they are also fakes). Also, there are some amazing craft shops that sell woodwork models and stuff like that, they are very interesting and quite reasonably priced.
For the adults and young adolescents, there are nightclubs, English bars along the beach front, English/Dutch pubs opposite Waikiki, a nightclub. The most popular English pubs being Robin Hood and Rovers Return. Most of the pubs/nightclubs are open till about 3 a.m. in the morning, so plenty of time for drink! Lol.
If you are like me and my family and enjoy a stroll, take a stroll along the beach line to one of the other resorts and catch the train back, I really enjoyed that day, we walked all the way to Blanes I think. So cool.
There are also available in the day, pedal boats, these are pretty cool in that they have slides on and you can go out as far as you want. The most popular sight being the rock in the middle of the sea, its just a rock on its own in the middle of the sea, quite something to be honest.
You also, on occasions see cruise ships, why? Well they dock and sail out of Barcelona, I love sight seeing, especially when I see a cruise ship and they are quite a magnificent sight at night, all lit up.
A little stroll could take you to Santa Susanna, its quieter than Malgrat, but its more of a place where you book your hotel and go to the beach, the shops are very limited, however you do have market stalls at night and the resort is closer to Burger King! Lol.
If you wish to go, you can book a hotel and book a flight to Barcelona. If you fly to Barcelona, you can catch the train to Malgrat, however you have to switch once, we changed at Badalona ( not a resort, it's a Spanish town, pretty cool, stayed there once with aunty, too Spanish though lol). The train takes around an hour to get to Malgrat but its nice as you get to see the other resorts, but beware, close your eyes! Lol……. There's a few nudist beach's along the way…….
Overall, I really enjoyed Malgrat de mar, there's plenty to do, and in two weeks you would of seen everything, done everything, oh and did I mention, there's also a water park near by too.. Never bin but my family have, they said it's amazing!
