Lonely Planet review for Port Olímpic

A busy marina built for the Olympic sailing events, Port Olímpic is surrounded by bars and restaurants. An eye-catcher on the approach from La Barceloneta is Frank Gehry’s giant copper Peix (Fish) sculpture. The area behind Port Olímpic, dominated by twin-tower blocks (the luxury Hotel Arts Barcelona and the Torre Mapfre office block), is the former Vila Olímpica living quarters for the Olympic competitors, which was later sold off as apartments.

    clean, structured place

    Doyel recommends this,

    This area, is a bit of walk along the coast, from the main beach. The metallic fish is easy to spot from a distance, so keep walking. There is a nice walking area, once you reach there. You can walk around this place, it is well layed out, and has a non sandy promenade. behind this structure there is a small courtyard mall and a few eateries around. A nice clean travel experience
