| Can anyone recommend a nice beach resort near Barcelona? |
| How near, like in Spain? Marbella is supposed to be nice |
|
San Sebastian is lovely - not too far away on the train
There are fast ferries to Mallorca |
| There are actually nice hotels on the beach in Barcelona itself. I loved walking along the ocean there. And Las Ramblas is in close walking distance. |
|
The beaches near Barcelona are packed titty to asshole in July and August.
You have been warned. |
San Sebastian in on the complete other coast. Yes it's lovely, but that's not what I would call near Barcelona. The most famous beach near Barcelona is Sitges, but that's not exactly family friendly. What about Ibiza? How old are you and what kind of scene are you looking for? |
| The Costa Brava isn't far away but it gets pretty full of Brits and other European tourists. |
Ok. 5 hrs away? It's like going to OBX from DC. Closer than Marbella. |
