Chiringuito BeGay

Chiringuito BeGay has earned its reputation as the focal point of gay beach life in Barcelona, sitting right on the shore at Mar Bella nudist beach and drawing a crowd from across the world every summer.

The food offering has grown well beyond its beach bar roots: expect a menu that runs from continental breakfast and scrambled eggs through vermouth-time classics, gourmet sandwiches, burgers, pokes, Tex-Mex dishes, and raw options including ceviche and tartare, with strong vegetarian and vegan choices throughout. The bar keeps pace with a solid lineup of cocktails, beers, fresh juices, protein shakes, and coffee.

Sun beds and umbrellas are available to rent, and the atmosphere builds steadily from May onwards, with August bringing the busiest crowds of the season. Book a table for lunch in peak season well ahead of time.
