Travel: Do Not Disturb

Purobeach, Barcelona

Urban beach club by the well-known Puro brand

About

In Barcelona, if you’re not a beach goer, and not at a hotel with a pool, it can be a very urban sweat vibe come summer. But at the new Puro Barcelona, you can dip, dine, and drink, all with the urban city skyline in the background – even if you’re not a hotel guest.

The Vibe

If you’ve been to Puro before (#UJloves the one in Palma), you know the drill. Billowing whites on the staff, sunshine sustenance (sushi, light salads, well spiced seafood), all washed down with rosé by day, stronger cocktails by night. Music plays from sunrise to end of day, and massages can be arranged. There are kids, so make sure you choose wisely when you’re selecting a lounger, and check the schedule for special events throughout the summer – Love Brunch recently held a party here.

Highlights

UJ says spend the day here, have a late lunch at Xiringuito Escriba, wander around town, then head back for sunset and drinks. Being up high has its perks.
