Train from Barcelona El Prat Airport to Tarragona. The…read moretrain station in the airport can be easily found, follow the red roof. Ask for a ticket to Tarragona which you can purchase for the bargain price of 5.80e. (The Regional and catalunya express cost 5.30 euros, other trains though are 16 euros if you get on the wrong train you'll have to pay the difference when the ticket inspector comes around.) Take the journey into Barcelona, it is three stops and takes approximately 20 minutes. You will then need to change platforms in Barcelona Saints, however a word of caution, be careful when catching the train to Tarragona, platform changes without notification, and there is no indication on the front of the trains where the final destination. Confusing, unfortunately we ended up getting on the train we had been told was going to Tarragona by a fellow passenger and ended up heading back to the airport from which we'd just left :-) It is prudent to check once on the train that it is the actual train you want.

Get the combined ticket out of Barcelona Espanya station. The ride from Monistrol up to (the Cremallera) Montserrat is wonderful, I can't imagine taking the cable car because of my fear of heights. You do not need to pay the high price for a group bus tour, the train is convenient and pleasant. They time the two trains so there's no wait at this station.

A very useful Metro stop, this is where you transfer from L3 to L2 and the FM to Parc de Montjuic…read more Currently Google Maps walking or mass transit will lead you astray, making it seem like you have to emerge from the underground and then it directs to to a little grocery above the entrance to the FM. Very annoying. Every Metro stop is decorated differently and I personally liked the tile work here. https://www.tmb.cat/en/barcelona/metro/-/lineametro/estacion/323

Beach metro! This is the best way to get to the best beach…read morein Barcelona, in my opinion. This subway station drops you off as close as you can get to the action around here. This subway station is all handicapped accessible. It has tiny elevators that take you down to the shallowest of all the metro stations in the Barcelona area. It makes sense, you don't want to be digging deep subway stations at the beach, they'll flood. This station works, but it's nothing wonderful. The signage was clear here, and the platform was split down the middle with the L4 train coming right down the center. It's well lit and seemed safe. We didn't wait long for a train. The fare was fair. (har!) The elevators were tiny. Like the size of phone booths. Just big enough for a wheelchair. I wish there was more public art.

A small station on the line from Barcelona to Blanes, with suburban trains (Cercanías in Spanish,…read moreRodalies in Catalan) roughly every half hour in each direction off-peak. The journey to Barcelona Sants takes about an hour. The station is a passing place on the otherwise single-track stretch north of Arenys de Mar; Barcelona-bound trains always use the main platform next to the building, but train to Blanes use either platform, so check which your train will leave from (or follow the locals). The handsome traditional station building has a small cafe-bar serving drinks and snacks which also doubles up as a ticket office. There are no automatic ticket machines, so leave time to buy your ticket in case there's a queue. There is a level crossing with warning lights to cross between the two platforms. At the Blanes end of the station, the line disappears dramatically into a tunnel under the outcrop, atop which sits the hermitage (chapel) of Sant Pau (St Paul).
