Local guide
About La Vila Olímpica
The area surrounding this port used to be part of Barcelona’s industrial landscape, but the 1992 Olympics provided the necessary catalyst for total regeneration. The signature purpose-built blocks for athletes have since been sold on to private owners, and give this neighbourhood a unique look. Over the course of the last twenty years, this has become one of the most sought-after areas to live in Barcelona, especially due to easy beach access and high-quality apartments. It’s mostly a residential neighborhood, full of young families and professionals, with few shops and restaurants.

Shop at Carnisseria Tradicional Eros Aldo
A family-owned butcher shop that's popular with the locals, serving fresh traditional meat products.
Go for a boat ride at Parc de la Ciutadela
This is probably the greenest oasis in all of Barcelona. Created as the city's first public park in the mid 19th Century, it's a lovely place to while away an afternoon.
Have a beachside meal at Agua
Calling all beach lovers! Agua serves delicious seafood in a pleasant seaside atmosphere – breeze included. When the kitchen closes, it turns into a club, so be ready to show your moves.
Eat by the sea at El Cangrejo Loco
If you're a fan of al-fresco dining, then you'll love El Cangrejo Loco. This high-end restaurant offers impeccable service, delicious paella and a stunning sea view.
Take some time off at Aire Ancient Baths
In the heart of Barcelona, there's a place where time stands still. This luxurious spa in a converted warehouse offers an unforgettable, almost surreal experience for the mind, body, and soul.
Have a traditional dinner at Llamber
This popular restaurant close to the park is a treat for all the senses – get there early to make sure you get a table.
Pay a visit to the Arco de Triunfo
This arch was built as the main access point during the 1888 Barcelona World Fair and has remained a popular tourist attraction ever since.
Have awesome paella at Xiringuito Escriba
These guys say they make the best Paella in town, and it's hard to argue. All their rice dishes are exquisite, served by lovely staff in a bright, buzzy setting.
