The Climate in March
Spring is coming in Barcelona! March is the month that brings the good weather and higher temperatures in the Catalan capital. The tress and the flowers blossom and the city awakens. The average temperature is generally 12ºC and the thermometer never reaches below 6 degrees. In fact, you can see the whole city full of colour and always under the sun.
These are the climatological figures for the month of March in Barcelona:

If you want more current information, here is a good page for meteorological information.
Together with April and May, March is one of the best months to enjoy your stay in Barcelona. Spring changes the city: the festivals, music events and runs begin. Here is what we think are the advantages and disadvantages of travelling to Barcelona in this month.
Advantages
Prices: Accommodation and flights are cheaper, so you can enjoy the city during the perfect season but with lower prices than during the other months. Remember that at Easter, the prices rise significantly, so we advise that you travel mid-March.
Less tourists: In the month of March, Barcelona has tourists in the streets, but they are still not full of people. The summer months are the most chaotic, so Spring seems to be the best season to travel to this destination stress free.
Excursions in Barcelona
To make the most of Barcelona and fill your trip with unforgettable experiences and emotions, we offer you the excursions through the Catalan capital organized by our friends - the GetYourGuide team. Choose your excursion and fall in love with Barcelona:
Disadvantages
The only disadvantage of travelling in March is that the sea will be too cold to take a swim. This is the only month with high temperatures where it will be almost impossible to enjoy this part of the city. Even so, you can go to Barceloneta or your preferred beach to enjoy the sun or with your friends to hang out.
