One of the biggest perks unique to the Barcelona region is the fact that there are dozens of beaches available either within walking distance or just a short train ride away in the Costa Brava region, the area north of Barcelona. Each beach offers a different experience, and summer is the perfect opportunity to discover what experiences the gorgeous Mediterranean shoreline can provide for you.
