Plane watching and beach at El Prat de Llobregat
You can get to El Prat de LLobregat with a train from Estacion Francia, which is really comfortable with a bicycle especially. A simple T-10 ticket is enough. From the station you have to go to the main street of the town and go along that for a while, until you reach the bicycle way which goes besides the airport. There is a nice little typical spanish bar before you exit the town if you feel like some tapas or cheap platos combinados. IT takes around 15 minutes with a bike to get to the beach, but of course more if you stop to take pictures of every low flying airplanes.There are also two plane watching spots on the way, one with these concrete chairs just like on the beach, and the other one is a watchtower, it is surprising how many people are there watching planes even on a weekday. I suppose the beach can be ok too in the summer, cause at least there are no buildings on the cost here only pine-trees (unfortunately surrounded by a fence), looks enough natural comparing to other beaches this close to Barcelona, although you can here the planes taking off all the time. It is a nice little trip with a bicycle, you can also visit the small natural park of the Llobregat river, there are visibly many kinds of different birds around.
