Sailing
On any day of the week in Barcelona you can see midday regattas taking place off the Barceloneta beaches or beyond the rompeolas (breakwater) on the far side of the port. Believe it or not, Olympic-level sailors are being trained for competition just a stone’s throw (or two) from La Rambla.
