It is primarily a "textile" city break we are going on but will see if we have time to visit one of those beaches.

Well Trish & I came back from Barcelona late Sunday Evening. Wednesday to Saturday were spent sightseeing but on Sunday we had some free time.  We strolled along the prom and found the Playa Mar Bella and decided to join the other bare souls there although it was too cold for a dip.  We stayed for about an hour before we reluctantly had to leave the beach to get our lunch before leaving for the airport.  What I found strange was that on Mar Bella there were a mix of nude and swimsuited people but on the next door beaches there was no one who had stripped down even to a cossie!!

If we go to Barcelona again we will get a hotel closer to Mar Bella
