Local tips for Barcelona

Mostly dry and sunny, but the gap between a sunny afternoon and a breezy evening near the sea is big — layer up after dark.

The Sagrada Família asks visitors to cover shoulders and avoid very short shorts or skirts.

Dinner starts late (often 9 pm), and locals dress neatly casual — dark jeans and a good knit fit right in.
