Plan enough timeSince there is a lot to discover and the terrain is very extensive, it is better to plan more time. Depending on what you want to experience, the program here can also fill an entire day. For example, four hours are recommended for the busy L'Oceanogràfic, and you should plan three hours for the Museu de les Ciències.
