Trade the bustle of Las Ramblas for 90 minutes on the Mediterranean aboard the Catamaran Orsom. Glide past Barcelona’s beaches and skyline—Sagrada Família, the W Hotel—and enjoy a relaxed sea-level view with a bar, toilet, and the chance to spot dolphins.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off Las Ramblas and the city opens toward the sea—salted breeze, gulls calling, and the slim silhouette of a catamaran at the Portal de la Pau. Onboard the Catamaran Orsom the skyline shifts into a horizontal panorama: the W Hotel rising like a glass marker, Sagrada Família’s towers seen from an unexpected angle, and beaches that push the shore away from the city’s bustle.
