Sant Pol, Blue Flag beach in Sant Pol de Mar, Spain
Description
Sant Pol is a beach on the Mediterranean coast that stretches about 275 meters with fine sand and clear water for swimming. It sits between the historic buildings of the town and the sea, with a narrow width of about 15 meters that makes it feel enclosed.
History
Sant Pol de Mar began as a fishing village and transformed into a coastal destination in the early 20th century. The beach has kept its natural features through these changes and remains central to the town's identity.
Culture
Local fishermen use this beach as part of their daily work, selling their catch to nearby restaurants and maintaining the area's working waterfront character.
Practical
The beach has showers, restrooms, and lifeguard services during summer months and is easily reached from the coastal train station. Visitors can access it conveniently by public transport and find parking options in the surrounding area.
Did you know?
The narrow width creates an unusual closeness between the sea and the old buildings that stand directly behind it. This tightness makes the place feel different from the larger, more open beaches found elsewhere in the region.
