Flanked by the towering Torre Mapfre and Hotel Arts, Port Olímpic was constructed as part of Barcelona’s urban renewal for the 1992 Olympics. Situated near the beach, this marina is a vibrant leisure area, enhanced by public art such as Frank Gehry’s shimmering Peix sculpture. Visitors can enjoy dining and drinking at the many waterfront establishments, all while admiring the view of multimillion-dollar yachts bobbing gently in the harbor.
