Tips From Cruise Passengers:
At the bottom of La Rambla (where some of the ships dock) beyond the Columbus Monument is the bustling of Port Vell. This was formerly the old port of Barcelona but today is an ultra modern leisure zone with bars, restaurants, shopping arcades, the Barcelona Aquarium and an Imax cinema. Another fun thing to do down here is to take a boat excursion on one of the 'golondrinas' which takes you around the harbour and along to Port Olímpic where the sailing events at the 1992 Olympic Games took place. Nice restuarants and keep following the road around to find a small beach.
FC Barcelona - Follow in the footsteps of the players that have made history, such as Cruyff, Maradona and Ronaldinho as you visit the presidents box, the press area, the changing room area and then down the tunnel and onto the pitch. Tour from €17 (Adults). However, nothing beats watching an actual La Liga match!
