Barcelona is a city with a laid back vibe. No wonder it is home to skaters and - with a beach in town - many surfers. Barceloneta is a true hotspot with many places to rent surfboards and gear to give it a go. No wonder this neighbourhood is the place to be for Surf House Barcelona, a definite favourite in town for many of us!
It can be tricky to find a trendy place in the overkill of tacky paella restaurants, but when my friends took me for a beach brunch here, I loved it immediately. With a small terrace on the Barceloneta boulevard, overlooking the beach, you have the perfect location. Mingle with locals, tourists, surf dudes and beach bums at the long table, or just find a cozy spot for you and your friends!
So what makes this different from any other beach bar? Well, for me first of all the fact that they have amazing juices and sandwiches! Guaranteed a healthy - or if preferred a more heavy - recovery weekend brunch. But Surf House is more than just a bar, it also organizes many events. Paddle yoga, beach cleaning (with a free drink!) or moonlight surfing are only a few of their most recent ideas which you can sign up for. So check out their website to see if there are any free spots, it's a cool experience for sure!
