Escape the heat of the city. Head for the brutalist, concrete building on the beach at San Sebasta in Barceloneta beneath the Montjuic cable car tower.
It contains two glorious, pristine, elevated outdoor pools with amazing views down the beach all the way to Forum. Take one of the loungers and watch the locals frolic. Retreat to Barrio Gothica at night for more fun.
