When to go to Barcelona: the best time to relax
Barcelona is the ideal city for the traveler - good climate, great beaches, numerous cultural and historical attractions, fun activities. You can come here at any time. Tours to Barcelona are in demand all year round.Although most travelers associate Spain with warm sea and sand, summer is not the best time to visit this beautiful city. The high tourist season in Barcelona starts in June and lasts until the La Mercé festival, which is held annually at the end of September. This period is marked by crowded hotels, traffic jams, crowded beaches.
As a result of the high popularity of the Catalan coast, the cost of air tickets in the high season increases by 1.5 times. Prices for hotel rooms and even simple hostels also skyrocket. There are kilometer-long queues at the main attractions. In addition, the local summer is characterized by high temperatures and stuffiness. There are several more periods when tourist activity in the region increases, such as Easter, Christmas or New Year.
The annual La Merce festival is held in Barcelona on September 18-24. A large-scale event is a great opportunity to experience the spirit of folk festivities. But you should be prepared for big crowds in the squares, high prices and closed shops.
The best time to visit Barcelona is late spring - the period from late April to early June. Daylight hours are already becoming quite long, and the temperature reaches optimal comfort values (19-25 degrees).
But do not swim in the sea in the spring. Those wishing to combine beach holidays and sightseeing should be in Barcelona from September 10 to mid-October. At this time, the air temperature is within 26 degrees, and the water in the sea does not drop below 25 degrees. You can plan your trip for October as well. The weather conditions this month are quite warm and comfortable, but sometimes it rains and cloudy days. But the prices for accommodation and entertainment are much lower.
