| ## FROM BARCELONA TO CASTELLDEFELS PLATJA ## |
|||
|
BY TRAIN: Not possible this year! The train service has been cut off due to construction on the rails BY TAXI: The taxi from the BCN city center to Castelldefels should cost around 40 euros. The easiest would be to tell the driver to go directly to the hotel (see addresses below) you are staying in on or near Passeig Maritim (Paseo Marítimo, in Spanish) in Castelldefels. Make sure to mention Castelldefels, because there is a Passeig Maritim in Barcelona as well, and that is in the other direction! The ride should take around 30 minutes. BY BUS: Take the L94 or the L95 from Plaza Espanya (red and green lines of the metro). Get off at the stop in front of the Bañosca restaurant, Passieg Maritim/Baixador. The bus ride will take around an hour and games start at 13h, so please try to catch the bus at 11h or before on Friday to give you time to register and settle into the hotel. |
