Pailebote Santa Eulàlia

• Real sailor quarters, not replicas, so kids climb through the actual rigging, crew bunks, and equipment
• Best for ages 7+, since narrow passages and steep steps are cramped for toddlers
• Open until 8pm in summer, so you can visit after a morning at the beach

The pailebote Santa Eulàlia is a restored 1918 schooner moored at the Moll de la Fusta in Port Vell, part of the Maritime Museum of Barcelona's collection. Visitors board the vessel to explore its design, examine period furnishings and rigging, and learn how sailors lived during long Mediterranean voyages. It's one of the oldest functioning sailing ships in the Mediterranean, so kids see actual sailor quarters and equipment, not replicas. The same €10 ticket also covers entry to the Maritime Museum building nearby.
