Considered one of the city’s most up-and-coming areas, Sant Martí offers access to Barcelona’s beaches, fantastic shopping options in the Diagonal Mar centre and fashionable nightspots for those who want to experience the most in-vogue clubs. The area also boasts a lot of green spaces, including Diagonal Mar Park and Poble Nou Park. Its most striking landmark is the Agbar Tower, which is a sight to behold when lit up at night.
