As many other European regions, Barcelona has well defined seasons in which temperatures and general weather are fairly predictable. Being a coast city, the relative humidity level is very high, always around 70%.
The warmest season is between June to August, with temperatures that sometimes can go higher than 30 degrees (Celsius), perfect for a holiday close to the sea. Enjoy the beaches and pools, walk the city wearing light clothing or just relax and have a cold drink at the various terraces available in the city.
Barcelona is a compact city, not too big and not too small. This characteristic makes it a welcoming city with a great diversity of cultural, recreational and commercial facilities.
Barcelona has a rich cultural life all the year round: opera, ballet, concerts, theater, festivals, exhibitions, museums, etc.
Barcelona has excellent air links, particularly with the majority of Spanish and European cities. Its international airport, located 15 minutes from the city center, is currently undergoing expansion. From 2008, the AVE high-speed train connects Barcelona with Madrid and Seville, and France and the European rail network in the future.
