Seafood: Local delicacy from Barcelona

Barcelona and its surrounding coasts, the Costa Brava and the Costa Dorada, are famous for their seafood.

Seafood belongs to the local cuisine like Tapas or "Pan con Tomate". Often, these traditional dishes are combined with each other and can be considered as a part of the Catalan culture. Those of you who would like to explore more, should take a trip from your Barcelona apartment or your Barcelona hotel to the city center or the Barcelonaeta area.

Barceloneta is the district right next to the harbour and the beach. There, you will be able to find plenty of fish and seafood restaurants. They often offer also traditional and international delicacies. Just take metro line 4 to the same-named station "Barceloneta" and walk along the harbour promenade.

While enjoying your meal, you can take a look upon the beach area - simply a perfect location. Of course, fish and seafood are the specialties on the menu. If you would like to enjoy a nice view combined with great food a reservation is advisable, because the restaurant is not an insiders' tip anymore.
