Don’t Wear Your Swim Suit in the Street
Barcelona has a pleasant Mediterranean climate year round, and is particularly warm and sunny from May through October. With 4.2 km of beach not far from the city center, it’s as much a beach town as it is a cultural mecca. However, unlike some other holiday hotspots, don’t stroll the streets in a bikini or swimming trunks, even if you’re heading to the seaside. You might be able to get away with it on the beachfront promenade, but cover-up elsewhere. It’s not just considered tasteless and inappropriate, it’s actually illegal. You can be fined €100 to €200 if you are caught walking around in skimpy beachwear – even men wandering bare-chested in shorts is a no-no.
