Camping Barcelona

This was our second long stay at Camping Barcelona, on the coast, between Mataro and Sant Andreu de Llevanes. Barcelona is the draw, of course, but if you're in a motorhome, or otherwise camping, this place is perfect. Clean, scenic, all the amenities, nice staff. With our various discounts, it cost us 16 euros a night, including electricity and, most importantly, the free shuttle into Barcelona and back.

Looking toward Mataro, 2k away; I walked the trail along here
every other day or so

Clothing optional beach, except right in town

Looking the other way, toward Sant Andreu, 1k away;
beautifully clear Mediterranean

There are always sailboats to watch

And every now and then an old pill-box washes up (Franco Art Deco)

At a class on making sangria; with a couple from near Lille; mixing fruit with
wine, what an abomination, they must have been thinking...

Seriously; we're never buying Don Simon again; well, until we run out of
Cointreau and brandy

Boarding the 9AM shuttle (two big buses) to Barcelona (there
is also the municipal bus and also the train from Mataro)
