BARCELONA PORT WATERSPORTS BASE

HOW WILL YOU BE GOING TO SEA THIS SEASON?

THE SEA, THE WIND… AND YOU

The Badalona Port Watersports Base is one of Marina de Badalona’s services intended to offer you different ways of getting into the sea and making suggestions that include everyone. Because, whoever you are, you shouldn’t be deprived of the chance to try that first contact between you, the sea and the wind, and then to continue the relationship with supported and guided activities. The Watersports Base promotes the culture of the sea based on watersports that offer great values in terms of personal and collective development. These include the city’s cultural seagoing heritage, individual responsibility, and empathy and respect for the marine environment.  There are opportunities for children of all ages, teenagers and adults. You can do them in a group, alone or however you like, depending on the occasion. They can be leisure activities, competitions, celebrations, or lessons for children as part of the school curriculum, after school or as special holiday courses.

The sea, the wind and you. Take the plunge and experience a more direct relationship with the sea around you. If you’re keen, we’ll guide you with our expertise. And you can use our equipment and port facilities, pushing off from the slipway or Marina Beach. Get off your towel and into the sea, with light sailing, surfing and paddleboarding or kayaking. You’ll never look at the water the same way again.

The sea is calling all of us!

WE’RE YOUR BEST OPTION

LIGHT SAILINGLIGHT SAILING

Your first contact with sailing is in small, manoeuvrable, folding boats perfect for learning and for your first races, as a group, in pairs or individually. We have Fusion and Ludics models. Why not come along?

PADDLEBOARDINGPADDLEBOARDING

It’s the latest trend. You move along on a surf board standing up, propelled by a paddle.  People love it because it’s safe and because you do it by yourself. There’s also the XL version, where you can go out in a group.  Try it!

WINDSURFINGWINDSURFING

This combines a board a sail, linked and coordinated via a mast, so you can slide over the waves. You can steer and pick up speed, depending on the wind, by rotating the sail. Give it a go!

KAYAKINGKAYAKING

Kayaks are propelled with one or two paddles. We have models of kayak for one, two or three people. They’re ideal for doing sport by admiring the skyline and for going out in groups, or in a two-seater. Like all the suggestions, kayaking is something you can do at any time of year. After all, the Inuit people do it in the frozen Arctic!

TRADITIONAL SAILINGTRADITIONAL SAILING

The ketch Ciutat Badalona, Marina Badalona’s classic boat, allows us to teach traditional sailing. This is possible thanks to the alliance between the Watersports Base and the Association of Friends of the Ketch Ciutat Badalona.

Coordination with Badalona Sailing Club also provides opportunities in the world of cruise sailing. There are interesting options such as the crew exchange, and the sailing club for non-owners. Give it a whirl!
