Published by admin under Beach, Concerts

Very often you will see them on the street to the beach or on the beach itself. Colourful, joyfull, sunny… you will enjoy they lively music … the GADJO band

 Gadjo are daft about Gypsy melodies. They sing like lovesick fools, tooting and trilling the  audience into a whirlwind of dance with their swing, ska and balkan rhythms and quirky songs about infatuated accordions, gold teeth, ilegal living and dodgy workmen.

What is so great about Barcelona is that you can live in a big city and enjoy going to the beach …

Barcelona has more than 5 km of beaches … the first one, the closest to the centre is the Barceloneta beach.

Many small bars are on the beach, they are called “chiringuitos”. Sometimes you can listen to some good DJ’s playing in the summer time .

Near the 2 big towers (one is the Arts’ Hotel ) you can see this wonderfull Frank Gehry metallic fish. (see post on this blog)

 You can also rent many apartments near Barcelona’s beach. Barceloneta quarter.
