About

Bogatell is a 702-meter Blue Flag beach between Nova Icària and Mar Bella, rebuilt as part of the 1992 Olympic seafront redevelopment. Wide, flat sand makes it easy for strollers and toddlers; the sea entry is shallow and gentle. Facilities include a children's play area, beach volleyball and football, two ping-pong tables, showers, adapted toilets, and a supervised assisted-bathing service for visitors with reduced mobility. Lifeguards cover the main bathing season daily from 10:30 to 19:30.
