Olympic Barcelona, open to the Mediterranean Sea

The Port Olímpic - Zoo stop on the Red Route of Barcelona Bus Turístic is located at Plaça dels Voluntaris Olímpics, which is at the bottom of Torre Mapfre and Hotel Arts, the twin skyscrapers that, one on either side of Carrer de la Marina, make up the most recognisable skyline of Barcelona’s coast.

This marina, which has the capacity for 740 moorings, was created as part of a plan to regenerate the entire coastline of the city before the 1992 Olympic Games by creating a large recreational and restaurant area and the residential area of the Olympic Village. It also recovered more than four kilometres of beaches, where you can enjoy the city’s privileged climate.
