Weed in Mataró, Spain: my experience

Hi, smokers! You probably know that cannabis laws and regulations vary from one county to another, so let’s go deeper and try to understand what is going on with weed in Mataró. My post covers info about weed laws, regulations, general attitude of locals and cops, hash VS weed availability and pricing, failures and success in searching weed in Mataró.

I just got back from Mataró a couple of days ago, and as I sit here enjoying a small joint of white widow, I can’t help but reflect on the great time I had in Mataró — thanks in part to the cannabis that accompanied me on my adventures.

So where do smokers purchase weed in Mataró?

Despite the fact that I did not have any problems with weed in Mataró because of Steve, he told me how everything works (and not only with cannabis).

Usually high-level dealers purchase stuff on wholesale darknet websites. Theoretically you may also go through all the nightmare of using darknet websites to get your stuff delivered in several days or even weeks. Website thehiddenwiki.com has all the links you may need to order stuff in the darknet using Tor browser and crypto, but this method usually works if you need a lot of stuff and have time (several days) to wait for the delivery.

For tourists, the process of obtaining weed in Mataró is a bit different. Street dealers are less common these days. Instead, many have moved to a more discreet system using encrypted messaging apps like Telegram. You get their contact details from someone who’s already bought weed in Mataró or through online forums, then you place your order, arrange a drop-off point, and pay with cryptocurrency. The package is typically left in a hidden spot, and you’re given the location and a photo to help you find it. This approach minimizes risks for both you and the dealer. I was glad I had Steve as my connection so I didn’t have to go through all this hassle.

What Do People in Mataró Think About Weed?

Even though weed is against the rules, a lot of people in Mataró don’t mind it too much. They just think you should be polite and not smoke it in front of everyone.

The overall attitude of locals to weed is rather relaxed, so you may even feel yourself home in Mataró after one good joint, telling this from my own experience. Steve shared with me a joint of simply perfect sativa (while he did not know the exact strain). We were smoking outside the bar, and saw other guys doing the same on the other side of the street 😁 So I can definitely say that smoking weed is rather popular in Mataró.

I’ve asked Steve if he may share contacts of his dealer, cause stuff was out of this world. He told me that his exact dealer does not work with new people, so he will be my dealer during my vacation, which was simply perfect. I wish everyone to find your own Steve in some bar of Mataró.

Weed Laws in Spain: The Real Deal

Alright, let’s break it down — Spain ain’t playin' with their weed laws. If you’re thinkin' you can just stroll into a shop and cop some high-THC weed in Mataró like you do in the Netherlands, nah fam, think again. You won’t find any legit spots sellin' anything with enough THC to get you lifted. You might see some medical stuff, but that CBD ain't gon' do nothin'.

Met this dude Steve in the hotel bar. He’s been around the Mataró block, knows what’s up with the ganja scene out here. Turns out, while the rules are strict on paper, the cops ain't always on it like that.

What Happens If You Get Caught with Weed?

In Mataró, if you have a little bit of weed with you (less than 10 grams), you probably won’t get into big trouble. The police might take it away, but they usually won’t arrest you. It’s still a good idea to be careful and not smoke cannabis in public in Mataró.
