One could almost say oh to be in Barcelona, now that spring is here. And once you are in Barcelona, it is a given that you are going to spend a lot of time exploring the lovely lanes of La Barceloneta, one of the most attractive areas of Barcelona.One of the reasons why La Barceloneta has become such a popular tourist playground in the past decade is because apart from its being an integral part of the city of Barcelona, it has everything a tourist wants, sun, sand and plenty of fun and games. If you want to work upon your tan, all you have to do is go out and look for an empty spot in about 4 km of sunny attractive beaches. The nearest beach is just a 10 minutes drive from the center of the city. And 272/365 sunny days is not a bad score at all!
So here you are at La Barceloneta, where you can spend your time enthusiastically walking down the streets, looking at the clothes hanging out of all the balconies or the windows, maybe see some señoritas exchanging pleasantries with each other standing on their balconies, as you look at their houses admiringly. La Barceloneta does not have anything much to offer you in the matter of ancient architecture, especially when you compare it with the historical city of Barcelona, but it has its own Spanish charm.It is definitely the time to sip a sangria with a girl named Chiquitita upon the beach, sitting under a colorful umbrella, but you are going to be offered Mojitos instead of sangrias. You can always watch the skaters skate by, the other tourists swimming scuba diving and windsurfing in the sun. Ah, this is the life. For the upwardly mobile, you can see the yachts going by, and decide upon which model would suit you best, when you have the inclination, time and funds to buy the sailing boat of your dreams.The marina area, actually that included in the Passeig Maritim area in La Barceloneta can be considered one of the historical parts of Barcelona , especially if you are interested in the maritime history of Spain. Naturally, you may going to get any reference to the Spanish Armada destroyed by the British, during Elizabeth I's reign, but hey, if you are into ships and boats, this is the place to spend a fascinating day. And after that, you can spend the evening at the nearest restaurant or bar.For the gourmet, who has come to Spain to enjoy the good food and wine, La Barceloneta is an experience to remember, because it started off as a small fishing village. Naturally, the fishermen liked their fresh seafood paella, which is one of the most delicious of the dishes you can eat here.Always remember that it is quite a sensible option to go in for a rented Barcelona apartment, at La Barceloneta, instead of spending your hard-earned money in expensive hotel accommodation. And if you happen to be visiting this area in June for the fiesta, every single hotel room is going to be booked solid. So, rented apartments are definitely the best choices and alternatives!
