Barcelona Excursion Ships
Las Golondrinas
 
 
This page is devoted to postcards and photographs of Barcelona harbour. An alphabetical list of ships shown on this page is shown below. Below this is a Fleet List.
 
Harbour tours are operated from the Mirador de Colom (Columbus Monument) at the seaward end of La Ramblas, and near the maritime museum. The shorter tour of around 55minutes is around the sheltered commercial harbour is run by the traditional double-ended ferries Encarnacion, Lolita and M.Del Carmen. These traditional ferries were known as Las Golondrinas, and the name is retained by the operator. Longer tours on the catamarans Trimar and Omnibus also venture into open seas as far as the Olympic Port.
