The Fòrum's enclosed saltwater bathing zone sits right on the seafront esplanade, a calm, wave-free stretch of sea penned off from the open water. You get in by steps and ladders into water that is deep from the edge, so it suits kids who already swim rather than paddling toddlers. Lifeguards watch the zone through the summer, and the flat decking makes it easy to lay out towels, though there is almost no natural shade, so bring your own cover, water, and sandals for hot ground. It is a few minutes from the L4 metro at El Maresme | Fòrum, and easy to fold into a day that takes in the adventure forest and playground on the same esplanade.
