Barcelona’s beaches are urban. They are nature. They are nightlife… they are magic.
If you haven’t seen Barcelona before, then you probably don’t know what I mean.
The beaches of Barcelona are so wonderful to spend an afternoon or some morning hour before your plane leaves – and they are right in the heart of the city. Both times that I’ve been there in Oct 2005 and Dec 2005 the appartment was within 5-10 minute walking distance to the beach.
They have a big number of wonderful restaurants there, aswell as very classy “ultra-lounges” there like the “Agua” ... and if you don’t care to wait some minutes you can go there by metro (subway) ... or take a take for some bucks… taxi is SOOO cheap there…
