Start your trip with a visit to Park Guell, an iconic UNESCO World Heritage site designed by renowned architect Antoni Gaudi. This whimsical park features vibrant mosaics, impressive architecture, and stunning views of the city. Kids will love exploring the dragon fountain and mushroom sculptures throughout the park.
Barcelona Aquarium, located on the waterfront, is the largest Mediterranean-themed aquarium in the world. Visitors can marvel at over 11,000 marine creatures, including rays, sharks, and urchins. Interactive exhibits include a shark tunnel and a touch tank with starfish and anemones. This is a great activity for families with children of all ages.
End your trip with a visit to one of Gaudi's most iconic works, Casa Batllo. This stunning building features twisting stairwells, colorful mosaics, and sculpted balconies. Kids will love exploring the interior of the building, especially the stunning rooftop terrace.
If you have more time, consider visiting other Gaudi works like Sagrada Familia or Casa Mila. For a less crowded beach, try visiting Bogatell Beach or Mar Bella Beach. If you have less time, skip the aquarium and head straight to Casa Batllo. Remember, many attractions can sell out in advance so it's best to book tickets online in advance to avoid disappointment.
