September: Barcelona
Barcelona combines culture and beaches all rolled into one. You’ll have just a short ride from the city’s center to Barceloneta Beach. The two-mile stretch of golden sand is regarded as one of the best beaches in Spain.
Even though September is considered the off-season, that’s when temperatures can climb up to 80 degrees, making the waters just right for swimming.
You can do a wide range of activities, including beach tennis, volleyball courts, lounge chairs, umbrellas, showers, and changing rooms. This beach vacation is also along the Passeig Maritim, a mile-long promenade bordering the beach with many shops and restaurants.
At night the shores convert into a thriving nightlife scene. Many nightclubs and lounges are situated just steps away from the sand. We recommend staying at Hotel Arts Barcelona.
It’s a luxurious retreat perched on the Mediterranean Sea’s shores, and it is one of the few hotels within walking distance of the beautiful beach. The ocean views from the hotel’s new infinity pool seamlessly blend into the sea.
Around this time, you’re probably dreaming of pumpkins, but let’s concentrate on October’s beach vacation instead!
