The City

Nestled between Garraf Massif and the sea, Castelldefels is more than just a satellite of Barcelona, it’s a destination in its own right. Experience a city that perfectly balances modern infrastructure with a relaxed, coastal soul. Whether you’re strolling through its leafy avenues or enjoying the panoramic views from the historic castle, you’ll find the ideal backdrop for a memorable Fly-in.

The Beach

Five kilometers of white-golden sand are calling your name. The beach in Castelldefels is paradisiacal: wide, pristine, and framed by the blue horizon. It’s the heart of our social life, whether you’re looking to join a high-energy volleyball game, try your hand at kitesurfing, or simply recharge your batteries under a palm tree.

The Food

Prepare your palate for a Mediterranean feast. From traditional rice and fresh-off-the-boat seafood at local chiringuitos to avant-garde Catalan cuisine, the local gastronomic scene is world-class. We’ll make sure you get a true taste of the region, paired with local wines and the mandatory sunset tapas session. Be sure to taste Arròs de Castelldefels, a unique culinary experience that fusins sea and mountin.

The Culture

Castelldefels is steeped in history, dominated by the castle, which has guarded these shores since the 10th century. Beyond the stones, you’ll immerse yourself in the vibrant Catalan culture, characterized by a spirit of innovation and a love for tradition. You can’t miss the Festa Major, where a welcoming local community will make you feel like a local.

The Castle

Castelldefels Castle sits atop a hill with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean and the Garraf Natural Park. Once a strategic point against pirate attacks, the castle now houses an interpretation centre that brings to life the thrilling history of piracy along the Catalan coast.

The Industry

We aren’t just here for the views. Situated a stone’s throw from the Barcelona-El Prat Airport and home to the UPC’s Castelldefels School of Telecommunications and Aerospace Engineering (EETAC), we are at the epicenter of Spain’s aerospace hub. You’ll have the chance to connect with cutting-edge research, local startups, and the engineering talent shaping the future of flight.
