Attractions & leisure
The Llobregat Delta is one of Catalonia"s most important wetland zones. It is home to 20 natural habitats which have been designated special areas of conservation by the EU, and has an extraordinary diversity of plant species. The Delta is close to
Barcelona and is an excellent place for bird-watching, as well as being a strategic point on the bird migration route. This is why it has been named a
GIBA (Global Important Bird Area).
This natural park, which emerges as if from a dream, protects the spiritual essence of Catalonia. For almost 1,000 years, a
Benedictine community has lived in these mountains located 60 km away from Barcelona. Their Basilica houses the serene image of the
Virgin of Montserrat, the patron saint of Catalonia.
The town of Sitges is located 37 km to the south of Barcelona, and its beaches and streets retain the beauty that inspired a whole generation of catalan artists in the late 19th century. We recommend you visit the modernista-style mansions and museums, and soak up the atmosphere of its pavement cafés and leisure attractions.
Terrassa, 28 Km west of Barcelona, modernista architects created factories and public buildings, as well as luxurious houses. The town has transformed its industrial past into museums and tourist trails. Sant Llorenç del Munt Natural Park is located just 5 Km from the town centre.
Come on board one of our motorised pleasure boats and enjoy a unique, and fascinating trip along Barcelona's coastline. Relax with a glass of wine and enjoy the landscape on one of Barcelona's iconic 'Golondrinas'.
