Barcelona is not just about La Rambla and La Sagrada Familia – if you'd like to discover a different and most vibrant symbol of Barcelona, La Barceloneta awaits you, the city's historic neighborhood overlooking the sea.
Your rep will take you there on the coach and then... no pre-established routes: You can stroll on your own amid its “chiringuitos”, the typical Spanish stalls, its restaurants and its clubs open till dawn.
A small tip – first sink your toes into the fine sand of its beach, full of attractions and boasting eclectic and monumental sculptures.
In the 18th century, this strip of land lapped by the Mediterranean sea used to be the village where the fishing community evicted from the La Ribera area lived. This is why, even today, it retains the same feel as a seafaring neighborhood, with its apartment buildings, laundry hanging in the sun and local flavors.
Give in to temptation: We'll give you a voucher to have a drink and taste local specialties, with a choice of two restaurants. Spoiler alert: There will be sangria!
At the end, you'll have discovered La Barceloneta at your ease, but without missing out on its typical flavors
