How to organise an epic Barcelona Stag Do

The tree-lined central promenade of La Rambla is Barcelona's most famous boulevard, which connects Plaça de Catalunya in the north with the Christopher Columbus Monument at Port Vell in the south.

Lined with shops, eateries, attractions, monuments and more, the 1.2-kilometre long promenade is often the first landmark tourists identify with the city and is best seen during the day. 

Beaches, beaches and more Beaches on your stag do

Did we mention the Beaches!

It would be an absolute sin not to visit at least one beach during your stag do in Barcelona.

And, of course, it's during the day when you will get the most out of being at the beach and lapping up the sun.

If you are a water sports fan than Barcelona will be your muse during the day with Speed Boats, Flyboarding, Banana Boats, Jet Skis, Paddleboarding, Sea Kayaking and more on offer.

There are also Beach Games, which is the ideal activity combo with all the beach crowd pleasers including volleyball, Frisbee and bat and ball. 

The Mandatory Boat Party or Cruise!  

One does not simply leave Barcelona without stepping on board at least one boat...

Especially during a stag weekend!

So, take advantage of the sunny climate and the Mediterranean Sea by setting sail with the plethora of boating options available to you.

Whether you want to sit back and watch the world go by with an exclusive Private Boat Charter, Private Yacht, BBQ Boat Party or a Catamaran Cruise, Barcelona's crystal-blue waters are set to impress during your stag do.  

But, you're in Barcelona and you are on a stag do, so there is only one real way to take to the water and it's by partying among other revellers on a Party Boat!

Whether you call it a Party Boat or Booze Cruise, it's the hottest ticket in town and it's two hours of partying onboard a  multi-level catamaran with UNLIMITED DRINKS, a top DJ and more.

Sightseeing on your stag do in Barcelona

If you are after a spot of sightseeing on your stag do then your eyes will go into overdrive in Barcelona. The cosmopolitan capital of Spain’s Catalonia region is known for its art, architecture, history and impressive sights and attractions.

The fantastical Sagrada Família church and other landmarks designed by Antoni Gaudí dot the city.

Other must-see attractions include Museu Picasso, Parc Guell, the Modernist buildings, Montjuic hill and Poble Espanyol Spanish Village as well as the Barrio Gotico or the Gothic quarter, which is Barcelona's medieval city.

Recommended Stag Party Activities

Even though Barcelona is covered with stunning architecture, there's far more to do in this city than stand around and stare during your stag do.

If it's activities, action and adrenaline you're after, you'll have a tough time trying to limit your choices when it comes to a stag do in Barcelona. All the classics are there including Paintball, Beer Tasting, Karting, Quad Bikes and Jet Skis. But; there's also a bunch of stag do ideas and activities to be enjoyed that are unique to Barcelona and absolutely worth trying!

Here are our top activities for a stag do in Barcelona:

Multi Activity Day: All the hilarity and high jinks of Inflatable Obstacles sumo wrestling, wipeout, combat activities and more.

Beer Bike Boat: The hype of the 'traditional' Beer Bike has died down a little, so Barcelona has upped the ante to give us the Beer Bike Boat and we love it. Just like the famed Beer Bike, you and the lads will be boozing and cruising through Barcelona, but instead of hitting the pavement, you'll be hitting the water and enjoying Barcelona's coastline. 

Parasailing: Definitely one for the bucket list - there's no better way to see the coast of Spain than with parasailing across it.

Bubble Football: Part zorbing, part five-a-side football and 100 percent amazing. The world's greatest game just got better because while Bubble football follows the same objectives and overall rules as a regular match of football, you'll now have your torso and arms encased in a giant inflatable ball, also known as a zorb.

Sea Kayaking: See Barcelona from a unique perspective and discover some of its beautiful blue waters with a Kayak Tour on your stag do.

Ferrari Driving: If you have a stag that loves the smell of burnt rubber and has a need for speed, you need to treat him to this Ferrari Driving experience during his stag do in Barcelona.

Barcelona Stag Weekends and Football

Home to Camp Nou and the famed FC Barcelona makes Spain's second-largest city the perfect destination for football mad stag parties.

Besides, what kind of stag do in Barcelona would be complete without a trip to the world famous Camp Nou!

Go behind the scenes of the phenomenal 100,000 seater stadium. Enjoy a tour of the most illustrious stadium in Spanish football history and take a backstage look at the home of FC Barcelona. You'll get to tour around the pitch, dugouts, tunnel and loads more.  

While you will definitely find some great eats during the day, it's at night when Barcelona's bars and restaurants come alive.

The locals in Barcelona don't eat until late, probably due to the fact the clubs and bars don't kick off until late either, so dinner is usually around 9 pm.

Barcelona has plenty of restaurants that pay homage to the region's Catalonian heritage, so expect sensational rustic tapas, tortillas, and stews laden with rich sweet-meats during your stag do. In addition to the plethora of national delights on offer, there's just about every cuisine you could ask for, ranging from American to African to Italian to Asian to South American.

Trust us, going hungry won't be a problem during your stag do in Barcelona.

If you're in the mood for Paella, Xiringuito Escribà, Les Quinze Nits and Bodega Joan will serve you up some top and tasty dishes. If you are after some traditional tapas you can embark on our Tapas & Club Tour to sample some of the best tapas on offer in Barcelona or head to Bormuth or La Champagneria.

The Font Mágica Fountain

While the city is bursting with art and architecture to be enjoyed during the day, you can only enjoy the famous Font Mágica Fountain at night.

Built in 1929, you have never seen a fountain like this. The incredible show of water, lights and music attracts an estimated 2.5 million visitors per year and it will be a great way to kick-start your stag party night.
