Always linked to the sea, Barcelona has been impregnated with the vibrant spirit of the Mediterranean, and that is the secret of the Barcelona people's way of being: open, fun, welcoming, expressive, eager to go out and share, enjoying the beach and the sun almost all year round, with an excellent gastronomy and an enviable lifestyle in every sense of the word.

The Catalan city becomes the setting for the most important sailing regatta in the world, which will attract thousands of visitors who will not only want to vibrate with the excitement of the competition, but also hope to experience a bit of that unique essence of the city and enjoy a full range of leisure plans capable of satisfying the most exquisite desires, also of the locals.

Eating in front of the sea

There is nothing more typical than eating fish and rice in what was once the fishing district of Barcelona, the Barceloneta, one of the most popular and beloved. On the Paseo Marítim, and a few meters from the beach, the Barraca restaurant fuses the taste of the sea with the Mediterranean culinary tradition, where rice dishes are the star product that is most often served at their tables, such as black rice with cod, the iconic paella a la marinera and the mellow rice with duck breast and truffled aioli. This is the perfect place to have tapas or a vermouth, from its terrace always full of people or from the second floor overlooking the sea. Not to miss any detail of the regattas.
