What we did was pick up picnic food/wine and jumped on the RENFE train from Plaza Catalunya. Be sure to leave yourself enough time to figure out which train you are supposed to take. Our train left Barcelona around 2pm on a Saturday and we took the return train around 7pm. This was plenty of time for us to enjoy and get back just in time to get ready for dinner. The town at Sant Pol de Mar seemed like it had really cute shops. Unfortunately, at the time we were there nearly everything was closed. I am glad we had our own food and libations. The best thing about being in the Med Sea is floating completely effortlessly. This was by far my favorite part... well that and the beauty of being topless, or nude should you choose! Enjoy!
