Barceloneta Beach Barceloneta is the first of the Barcelona beaches and can therefore get quite busy during the summer months. The picture of Barceloneta beach above was taken on 3rd of October, and the sun is still shining! But it's not always like this. Some days can be overcast or even rainy - it's the luck of the draw.
metroMetro stop "Barceloneta" (Yellow Line, L4) Turn right on leaving the metro and cross the main road, continue walking straight along Passeig de Joan de Borbo for about 10 minutes. You will see the marina area on your right as you walk.
There are plenty of things to do on the beach besides swim. Windsurfing and kite surfing are popular. You can also enjoy a refreshing drink from one of the many beach huts. Or, if you're in need of a rest, just lie down and soak up the warmth of the Spanish sun with a good book.

Barcelona is a fantastic place to visit. We were fortunate enough to visit last Fall before covid. The beaches were not even a priority for us, there is so much other stuff. The architecture is unbelievable, specifically the still in process cathedral Sagrada Famiila. Ultural abounds
