Sant Pol de Mar is a municipality in the comarca of Maresme in Catalonia, Spain. It is located on the coast between Canet de Mar and Calella. The national highway N-11 and a station on the RENFE railway line link Sant Pol de Mar to the rest of the coast, while a local road links the town with Arenys de Munt.
In 2009, Sant Pol de Mar was the site of a bus crash, killing six Dutch tourists and leaving dozens injured.
