Taking aim at overtourism and pollution, Barcelona has banned cruise ships from docking near the city center, beginning Oct. 22.
All cruise ships will have to dock at the Moll Adossat pier south of the city center. The pier is currently used by the industry’s largest cruise ships.
Moll Adossat is a shuttle bus ride from Barcelona’s city center, whereas the World Trade Center and Muelle Barcelona Norte terminals are a short walk from the city center.
