Named the #1 Beach City in the world by National Geographic, Barcelona's beaches are world-renowned. Although locals prefer that you do not stroll through the city in beachwear, the beaches themselves have a very open and relaxed atmosphere. Unlike many European beaches, however, you will find fun and friendly "chiringuitos" common on Spanish beaches that offer you a place to sit down and listen to music while you have a drink and grab a bite to eat directly on the sand as you watch beach-goers strolling by.
The beach stretches from the tip of Barceloneta in Port Vell and far away, passing Vila Olimpica and further.
Port Vell
Barcelona’s old port at the bottom of La Ram-
bla, once such an eyesore that it caused public
protests, has been transformed since the 1980s
into a people-friendly leisure zone.
