Discover things to do in Barcelona.
Barcelona doesn’t do boring. This is a city where you can chase sunlight through Gothic alleyways, sip vermouth by the hour, and stumble upon street performers so good you forget you had dinner plans. It’s bold, it’s beautiful, and it knows how to live well.
Whether you’re craving Gaudí views from your balcony or a cozy boutique spot tucked away in El Born, your trip itinerary should feel like it belongs. We cut through the noise and filtered out the fluff.
These are the top 5 activities travelers genuinely rave about.

#5 Cup Making
Shared by Orion – 161 ❤️
“Turning clay into memory—Our hands got messy in the best way. We shaped, molded, laughed. By the end, we had more clay on us than the cup—but hey, that’s the point. A souvenir we actually made ourselves.”
#4 Park Guell Tour
Shared by Savannah – 451 ❤️
“Gaudí’s candy-colored dreamscape—Mosaics danced beneath our feet as the city unfolded below. It’s like walking through someone’s imagination, except that imagination is Barcelona itself. We wandered slow, letting the colors do the talking.”
#3 Forever Yours
Shared by Wyatt Pearson – 596 ❤️
“Barcelona isn’t just a city—it’s a slow, golden swirl of art, sea air, and late-night laughter. Gaudí dreams baked into rooftops, plates of jamón passed between friends, and sunsets that demand your full attention. It’s not about checking off sights—it’s about slipping into the rhythm. With a chilled glass of sangria and nowhere else to be—absolutely.”
#2 Paddlesurfing
Shared by Paige Emerson – 689 ❤️
“Floating between sea and sky.—Barcelona’s beaches aren’t just for lounging. We paddled out past the breakers, slicing through still waters while the city sparkled behind us. For a few hours, it was just us, the board, and the Mediterranean.”
#1 Food & Wine
Shared by Connor Williams – 731 ❤️
“Grazing our way through the Gothic Quarter—We let our cravings lead the way—cheese counters, vermouth tastings, jamón sliced paper-thin. One bar led to another, and before long, we were storytelling with strangers over second rounds.”
