Arenys de Mar, in the heart of the Maresme and just 40 km from Barcelona, is a seaside town with a Mediterranean character and excellent road and rail connections. Its blend of tradition, coastal landscape and a relaxed pace of life makes it an ideal place to buy a home and enjoy the Mediterranean year-round.
The port of Arenys, one of the most significant on the Catalan coast, energises social and culinary life with its historic fish auction and restaurants specialising in seafood and market cuisine. Along the shoreline, wide sandy beaches and nautical facilities invite you to practise sports, go boating or simply relax in the sun.
The town centre boasts notable heritage: the parish church of Santa Maria with a prominent Baroque altarpiece, the Museu Marès de la Punta, the Museu Mollfulleda de Mineralogia and the distinctive seafaring cemetery, celebrated in Catalan literature and offering panoramic views of the harbour, the Montnegre and the Torre dels Encantats.
In addition, Arenys de Mar offers all essential services — local shops, schools, cultural and sports facilities — and a diverse housing stock.
