The city of Barcelona is an ideal destination for skaters - in case you didn't know ;-)
The local press wrote about the recently inaugurated three new or renovated skate parks.
The news about the Street League Pro Open in Badalona, Barcelona, May 16-17, 2015, reminded me of them.
Mar Bella, Poble Nou: 3,000 sqm, street, surf, 3 pools, close to the beach; has got an official website
Áurea Cuadrado, Les Corts: 2,500 sqm, street, city hall offers maps to find it; this travel site has got a paragraph
Via Favència, Nou Barris (Metro: Canyelles): 2,300 sqm, street, pool, raw urban environment; the architects' site has got some pictures; the city hall site tells the history.
For pictures, videos, etc., just google for "skate park [name]".
