Sandy beach, Promenade

Just a few metres from the city centre, you'll come across a neighbourhood called Barceloneta, which used to be a poor fishing village. However, thanks to the urban renewal before the 1992 Olympics, things have changed and the city has built beautiful beaches, a modern harbour and streets full of restaurants, cafes and clubs.
