What to do in Barcelona?

Barcelona has 5km of beach divided into different beaches. Barceloneta is the most well known amongst them as it is located in the heart of the old city, where most visitors concentrate for its cuisine and pedestrian areas. It is also a great place to skateboard, roller skate or bike with its long stretch of the path behind the beach, great atmosphere and views.
Take a Barcelona harbour tour and visit other beaches that are located close to the city like Bogatell, Nova Icaria, Mar Bella and more, with a total of 9 sandbanks along the coast of Barcelona. Each of these beaches offers sun worshippers the best services and equipment necessary to enjoy the best water sports experience. Paddleboarding, surfing, kayaking, sailing courses or flyboarding in Port Olimpic are some of the activities that can compliment your visits and add excitement and bundles of enjoyment to your trip.
Again, Barcelona's superior transport links allow easy access to beaches a little out of the city such as; Sitges, Vilanova South or North Blanes with the very beginning of the Costa Brava.

Boat rentals in Barcelona are always a good decision! During your Barcelona harbour cruise you should refresh yourself with freshly squeezed juices and a few tapas in the famous Spanish Chiringuitos! Spelt xiringuitos in Catalan, this is an excellent snack or full meal with patatas bravas, hamburgers and even fresh fruits. 

On land... 

Other than exploring quirky streets, museums and beautiful beaches, Barcelona has many other places you should experience. 
One of the most visited monuments is the Sagrada Familia, a spectacular and impressive work of Antonio Gaudi, which would guarantee even the least cultured spectator to leave feeling inspired. Other Gaudi masterpieces of architecture include the beautiful modernist buildings that are Casa Batllo and La Pedrera, both located on the Paseo de Gracia, one of the most representative streets for its business. 
If you are a fan of traditional markets with fresh produce, you will find these in the Mercado de San Jose, better known as La Boqueria. Located in the heart of the Ramblas, there is a pedestrian walkway that crosses the city. This is the perfect way to breathe in the essence of the city.
For those of you who are football fans, do not miss out on the chance to visit Camp Nou Stadium, Barcelona Football Club.
Another natural area, away from the Barcelona crowds, that is definitely worth a visit is Tibidabo.

Gastronomy

Catalan cuisine offers delicious products and dishes full of Mediterranean tradition so the vegetables, fruit, fish and meat are a must. It would be rude not to taste a Paella and bread with tomato whilst visiting the region of Catalunya. Furthermore, it is imperative that you also try the esqueixada, the roasted vegetables, bread coca, country bread and home made tapas, all cooked and prepared with exclusive olive oil. 
In Barcelona rentals such as catamarans and yachts also have the option to hire a chef on board! Home cooked Paella while relaxing listening to the water on your sailing trip, what more could you be missing?

Which are the most popular ports in Barcelona?

Barcelona's great! Great coastline, great people, great food. Please watch out of pickpockets though - very bad here. Keep a zip up bad and wear it on your front especialy in tourist areas. Other areas near to Barcelona like the Costa Brave - l'Escala, Palamos, Bergur - are all great places to sail from - with calas (small coves) you can anchor at and swim in with fish and great beaches and rocks to sunbathe on!
