Castelldefels is located on the Garraf coast, lying between the mountainous reliefs of the massif of the same name and the Mediterranean Sea.
Just a few minutes from Barcelona and its international airport, it boasts more than five kilometres of fine sandy beaches.
Its exceptional location has made it an attractive tourist destination for those looking to discover the Baix Llobregat region in all its glory.
Thus, visitors can practise any water sport in the unrivalled facilities of its marina and even canoeing in the Olympic Canal, which was built for the 1992 Olympic Games.
The wonderful temperatures of the Barcelona coastline will make the waters of the Mediterranean an absolute delight, not to mention its artistic heritage. The ancient Castelldefels Castle, after which the town is named, dominates the town’s coastline. With a distinctively medieval style, you can also admire guard towers, built in the 16th century, such as Can Ballester or Torre Barona.
