Els Tinglados i la Plaça dels Homes de la Mar

Mostly sitting in the strip of shade along the sheds, with kickabouts and skating practice on the open slab and kids on bikes once the sun is off it, probably from mid-afternoon onwards.

Kids playing open paving of Plaça dels Homes de la Mar, by the Lonja de Pescadores block

Big flat traffic-free slab with almost no shade, so it's dead through the afternoon and then fills with kids on bikes and scooters once the sun goes off it. It's also the square the barrio uses when something needs setting up outdoors.

Sitting and talking the shaded strip along the landward face of the Tinglados, Muelle de la Aduana

The brick sheds are the only thing on the whole dock that throws real shade, and from mid-afternoon the strip along their inland side is where people actually stop and sit. Everything else out there is open concrete and unusable until the sun drops.

Informal sport the open concrete apron between the Tinglados and the Clock Building

Big flat empty slab with nothing on it, so it gets used for whatever needs space — kickabouts, frisbee, people practising rollerskating turns — except when an event has the sheds and it's fenced off entirely.
