One of the reasons that makes Barcelona the perfect place to live is that we have at more or less 1 hour the Pyrenees mountains. There you can practice winter sports like alpine ski, mountaineering ski, snowboard, alpinism and more. If we go a little bit further away, you can be in Andorra, a beautiful country for winter lovers. On the other hand, Barcelona is based in the coast and our autonomic province, Catalonia, has beautiful beaches, starting from the Golden Coast until Costa Brava. The beaches have awesome turquoise and crystalline waters. There you can do kayak, paddle surf and any water sport in you can imagine.
