Georgia Williams writes for Best Beaches Near Barcelona by riding the same Rodalies trains she sends readers to catch. She has done the quick R2 Sud run out to Castelldefels and Sitges more times than she can count, and the longer hauls north to Calella, Blanes, and the Costa Brava coves around Tossa de Mar, Roses, and Cadaqués. She is not chasing sponsorships and she does not work with tourism boards. She has stood on enough train platforms recalculating a ruined plan to know that a beach photographed at sunrise with nobody in frame tells you almost nothing about what it looks like at noon in July. Her writing compares sand, water, and crowd levels town by town, and says plainly when a popular spot has stopped being worth the trip. She also says when an overhyped beach is still genuinely good, because contrarianism for its own sake helps no one packing a beach bag on a Friday morning.
