Barcelona: cruise port guide

One of Europe's leading cruise ports: Gaudí, the Gothic Quarter and beaches, with terminals close to the city centre.

Getting around

Terminals at the World Trade Center are a step from public transport. Those on the Adossat quay are linked to the city centre by a paid shuttle bus (Cruise bus), which drops you near the foot of La Rambla.

With one day

Sagrada Família (book timed tickets in advance)
Gothic Quarter and the Cathedral
La Boqueria market, then the Barceloneta seafront

Private cars may drop off and pick up at the terminals, but parking there is not allowed.
