Tour Barcelona: See Barceloneta by bike!

Article by Explorica Business Development Manager Phil Todisco.

On my recent Explorica trip to Spain this June, I was confronted with what to do on my last day in Barcelona. I had until 2 pm before I had to catch a flight to meet up with my tour group in Madrid.

It was an overcast, yet warm and comfy day, at the end of a wonderful stay in Barcelona. I had already visited La Sagrada Família, Las Ramblas and Park Güell with wonderful local guides. I absolutely loved the sights and history of this beautiful city, but what could I do (on my own) to explore just a little more of this city before moving on?

Bike to Barceloneta! Yes, sir. For just 6 euro, I was able to rent a sturdy bike for two hours! It proved to be the perfect choice. My hotel (Hotel Rialto, just off Las Ramblas) was conveniently located for city walks but just a bit too far to really get to the beach. Renting a bike provided me with plenty of time and energy to traverse the entire length of Barceloneta, while getting some aerobic exercise and wind in my sails!

There are plenty of bike paths, so there’s only a few places with risk of traffic woes. There’s lots of small stands with water and even fruit cups. Why not? I’m riding a bike and acting healthy, right? You can easily ride the length of the beach, from the magnificent W hotel, all the way to the trendy beachfront tapas bars further north. You can ride right along the beach, or up on a bike path. I did both! And don’t miss the Real Yacht Club de Barcelona for some of the most luxurious boats in Spain! Rumor has it that Cristiano Ronaldo keeps his private yacht there as well!

A couple of things to note. You will want to stay with your bike at all times. The bike rental did not come with a lock, so you have to use your time wisely. The rental process couldn’t have been any easier, though. All we needed to do was leave our license – no deposit, just the 6 Euros for the two hours. I rented mine at BornBike Barcelona. They have many locations and are very friendly and eager to help.

So, on your next trip to Barcelona, cinch up your back pack and pedal your way to the shores of Barceloneta!

  1. Have you ever considered creating an ebook or guest authoring on other sites?
    I have a blog centered on the same topics you discuss and would really like
    to have you share some stories/information. I know my readers would enjoy your work.
    If you’re even remotely interested, feel free to shoot me an e mail.

  2. Greetings. My name is Claire. A few years ago, my whole world shattered.
    My ex-boyfriend cheated on me, drained my hard-earned money, and fled to
    Paris.
    I was devastated and penniless. However, I
    decided to learn about cryptocurrencies. That is how I found the
    Paybis platform. This platform saved my future.
    What I love about Paybis is how incredibly easy it is to use.
    It provides lightning-fast transfers, minimal commissions, and
    incredible customer service. Making smart
    financial decisions became a breeze with them.

    By using Paybis, I got back my wealth and started making great profits.
    Then, I met an truly kind guy who healed my heart, and we recently got
    married. He is a successful business owner, and interestingly enough,
    he now relies on Paybis too! He uses it to process
    corporate transactions for his business because of its unmatched reliability.

    If you need a trustworthy crypto platform, Paybis is simply
    the best way to go. It changed my destiny!

  6. Asian Grownup Movies are available for costless on AsianTube.
    And if you’re unfamiliar with Asian pornography terminology, JAV
    is exactly as it sounds: Japanese adult videos. For all the naked females and the filthy things they’re doing, it’s not adult-rated for shouting or murder.
    And that’s exactly the kind of content we all
    enjoy watching on this site. AsianTube.TV https://musicados.com.br/author/harrisonreinha/
