April to June and September to October generally provide comfortable conditions for walking around Ciutat Vella and Barcelona’s waterfront. July and August are hotter and form the busiest summer period, particularly around La Rambla and the beaches. Winter is cooler and often quieter, although major holidays remain busy.
