Locals like a leisurely start to the day, but also enjoy parks, beaches and brunch spots â hereâs how to recreate your own Spanish Sunday
Catalans are night owls â dinner is rarely before 9pm, bed is rarely before midnight â and Sunday mornings are a late and leisurely affair. During the mild winter months they reclaim the beach as their own, strolling along the boardwalk with family and friends, perhaps stopping for coffee at one of the sprawling terrace bars that overlook the sea.
In summer the beach is left to the sun-worshipping tourists, and Catalans are more likely to be found seeking shade in tree-lined squares, where the stillness is interrupted only with the peal of church bells and the squawking of the monk parakeets.
