If you like to relax on the beach I would not bother going to Barcelona beach. I have never seen a beach as busy. People come up to you literally every 30 seconds asking you to buy water or beer. There’s also a lot of people trying to sell you event wristbands who will not leave you alone despite you telling them you’re not interested. The beach is also not clean. There also doesn’t seem to be anywhere to get takeaway food or drinks just sit down restaurants. If you are wanting to visit a beach during your stay I would recommend traveling a bit further out.

We visited the beaches to be pestered by those selling beach blankets, drinks, clothes etc. If that was not enough you cannot miss those @*#&*?! both local and tourists who think it is okay just to leave beer cans, bottles,empty packets etc. Really did not enjoy it although the sea was fantastic.

If you are in Barcelona in good weather, you must go to beach. Very beautiful beach, running track, biking track, open space gym!, many bars and cafes, tennis courts, hotels, shopping and everything else that you will like.
