We board Las Golondrinas, the traditional boats that have been sailing out of this port since 1888, and take the harbour from an angle you cannot get on foot: Port Vell and its working docks, the coastline and the skyline from the sea, Maremagnum, the Porta d’Europa bridge. Then into L’Aquàrium, where the Oceanari puts […]
