Near the busy area of Plaza de España, there are two municipal swimming pools where you can find the peace you were looking for.
The two pools were built to host the competitions of the 92 Olympic Games and are very close to each other. The second has amazing views of the entire city.
Center Esportiu Municipal Piscines Bernat Picornell
Av. Estadi, 30-38
934 234 041
Piscines Municipals de Montjuïc
Av. Miramar, 31
934 430 046
When you leave, you can enjoy a walk in the mountain. We highly recommend you to go to El Xalet, a mythical restaurant for its panoramic view of Barcelona although somewhat expensive. In the area you also have La Caseta del Migdia (with a much more relaxed atmosphere) and, of course, Montjuic Castle.
In this area there is also the pool of the Reial Societat de Tennis Pompeia (Foixarda street, 2). You can access whenever you pay the tuition and the monthly fee.
The public access pools in the center of Barcelona are a treasure in summer. First, a dip and then countless leisure alternatives in a comfortable 10 minute surroundings.

The outdoor swimming pool with solarium is at the foot of the Ciutadella Park, in the Born district and near the Barceloneta. A must to cool off and continue with the agenda in the city.
DIR Seven outdoor pool
Sunday Passage, 7

The pool is not too big but enough to take a dip. It is located next to Paseo de Gracia, almost reaching Diagonal.
For the undecided or groups that want both beach and pool this is the ideal option. Facilities very close to the mythical Hotel Vela and with privileged views towards the sea.
There are two options of pools, a public one and the other private, next to each other:
Center Esportiu Municipal de Sant Sebastià

It is necessary to be a member or meet someone who is to access the site.
Another alternative is to approach the bathing area of the Forum, or what has been a beach without sand and with lockers, public toilets and dressing rooms. In short, a great salt water pool.
