If you're searching for a spectacular city break with gorgeous beaches thrown in too, then Barcelona holidays are your best bet. Located on the northeast corner of the Iberian Peninsula and facing the emerald blue Mediterranean Sea, Barcelona is undoubtedly one of the most popular cities in Europe - and is best visited during the early summer months of April and May.
With mild, cool winters and tepid summers, this buzzing city provides the perfect opportunity to indulge in all kinds of outdoor activities. Barcelona holidays offer incredble architecture, art, culture and atmopshere in its bustling city, while the coast is a favourite with families, couples and friends alike. Tour the vibrant city on a bike, catch a show at the world-famous Liceu Opera House or marvel at Sagrada Familia, the stunning Neo-Gothic church designed by the eccentric Catalan architect, Antoni Gaudi.
For those who can’t do without shopping, holidays in Barcelona serve up a tantalizing mix of fashionable boutiques, local markets, high-street brands and secret gems for yout to browse. This Mediterranean gem is also a paradise for food lovers – explore the city's hidden tapas bars and indulge in local, delicious bites and a glass or two of Sangria, you'll find some of the best spots nestled down cobbled streets. Romantic and vibrant, Barcelona holidays are a must for fun-loving couples, families and friends alike.
San Pedro Alcantara’s exciting promenade bars come alive as evening dawns. It’s a relaxed party crowd with just a few salsa clubs and the Bora Bora beach club to enjoy lively performances, cocktail in hand. The town has few such watering holes, mostly scattered along the beach or the town centre. Those hungry for more action, can take a 10-minute ride to the glamorous resort town of Puerto Banus, Marbella. Here the scene is a notch ahead—from tantalizing piano bars to high-octane clubs. If you’re lucky, you might do some celeb-spotting as well...
San Pedro de Alcantara’s has a street market on Thursdays, and everything from fresh fruits, vegetables to groceries and souvenir items are traded here. Held in the fairground in the centre of town, this market is held from 10am until around 2pm. Handmade items and pottery such as ceramic plates, olive oil bottles, flamenco fans and embroidered scarves are easy to pick up here and can make for great gifts to take home. If you’re seeking designer and boutique stores, head into the Puerto Banus harbour where the yacht-bobbing waterfront is lined by high-end shops.
San Pedro Boulevard is a popular park built over the main coastal highway to San Pedro Alcantara. Spanning the boulevard is its eye-catching 300m long footbridge that reflects the sea and is fondly called 'Un Mar de Sensaciones' (A sea of sensations). The boulevard has several play areas and places to explore for the kids. Spread over 55,000 s.m, the boulevard has as many as six playgrounds, the largest being 650 s.m. The boulevard also has an outdoor amphitheater, a cycle lane and skates and segways are available for hire, too. This is an oasis of leisure for families with young kids.
Located at the Marbella end of the Boulevard in San Pedro Alcantara, there is a Fun & Entertainment centre, Happy Days. Providing fun for the entire family, it has several attractions like Bouncy castle, 9-hole Pirate-themed mini golf course, ice-skating rink and game of foot-pool. This is a clean, disabled-friendly place with helpful staff and open every afternoon except Monday and Tuesdays. When the kids feel hungry, there is an Airstream trailer diner serving up US style pizzas, burgers, salads and hot dogs with soft drinks. This place also hosts Birthday parties.
