Barcelona City Guide: La Barceloneta

Let’s go to the playa by tube?
Barcelona: 4km of beaches, 10 min away from the centre & 272 sunny days a year. Get tanned on the beach, dive into the waves, surf, windsurf and kitesurf. Go jogging, roller-skating or cycling on the Passeig Maritim or wander in the marina while taking a look at the beautiful yachts and sailing boats.

Wanna sip a Mojito at the Chiringito (a bar on the beach)? Feel like paella or seafood on the seashore? The Barceloneta has an exquisite taste of holidays.

The Barceloneta, built over the sea in the 18th c., once was a village of fishermen, sailors and soldiers. With its standard buildings bloks and washing hanging out of the windows, the area has retained its working class touch.

Passeig Maritim : a stroll along the sea down to the Port Olympic (bars, restaurants, night clubs and casino).

Cable Car : Barcelona from the sky.

San Juan : fiesta on the beach (end of June).
