Marina Vela Barcelona
Marina Vela sits right next to the iconic W Hotel at the tip of Barceloneta, putting you steps from the beach and a short walk from the Gothic Quarter. The marina offers 130 moorings in a slick, modern setting that feels a world away from the busier Port Olímpic nearby. Open most of the week with solid on-site support, it's one of the more well-positioned spots to dock if you want easy access to the heart of Barcelona without sacrificing waterfront atmosphere.
