In this post we will show you the best places to see the sunset in Barcelona 🙂
Keep in mind that in winter the sun sets earlier, around 5:30 pm, and in summer around 8:30 pm, so depending on the month, it will be later or earlier.
Let’s get to the TOP 5 sunsets in Barcelona:
1- Sunset boat trip in Barcelona:
Without a doubt, this is the best option to enjoy a wonderful sunset in Barcelona.
The views from the sea are spectacular; the orange color of the Barcelona sky seen from the boat leaves you speechless.

2 – Sunset from Montjuic:

Secondly, we have the sunset from Montjuïc. Specifically, that day we saw it from the cable car that you catch at Avenida Miramar, 30 (Location on Google Maps) and that goes up to Montjuïc Castle (Location on Google Maps).
The views from Montjuïc are spectacular because, being so high up, you can see the entire city of Barcelona from a different perspective.
3 – Sunset on Barceloneta beach:

Another good option to see a beautiful sunset in Barcelona is from Barceloneta beach, especially in winter as the sun sets almost over the sea at the height of the W Hotel (Hotel Vela) approx and leaves the sky a very beautiful orange-lilac color.
4 – Carmel Bunkers

In 4th position we have the Carmel bunkers, which, located at the rear of the city and at a high elevation, offer spectacular views of the city and the sea.
You can get there by metro at the Alfonso X stop on the yellow line (line 4).
5 – Tibidabo

And finally, we have Tibidabo. It’s the furthest option from the city, which means it offers the best views and height.
We hope you enjoyed our top spots to watch the sunset in Barcelona, and don’t hesitate to book your sunset boat trip. You won’t regret it!! 🙂
