Tourism is an important sector of Barcelona as it is a beautiful city with a stranger culture, incredible architecture, and good climate. Before packing for the tourism sector in Barcelona, it is good to plan and depending on the month you are thinking of visiting Barcelona in February then the following clothing items should be packed. In this guide, we are going to give you some recommendations and ideas about what to wear in Barcelona Spain in February.
1. Layered Clothing
February is quite a mild part of the year in Barcelona, although nights and mornings might still be quite cold. To avoid any kind of inconvenience in the course of the day, one is advised to put on many clothes. This way, it is easy to wear or do away with any garment which may be making the heat unbearable or which makes the cold unbearable as well.
Beginners should wear fine gauged clothing starting with a light-fitting base layer- a shirt with long-sleeves or a sweater, intercalated by the medium weight jacket or cardigan. This way you’ll be warm during the cooler part of the day and you can take off layers as the sun climbs higher in the sky.
2. Outerwear
As it was mentioned, in a middle of February Barcelona can be rather wet, therefore it’s better to have a raincoat or a trench coat with you. Select one that is portable and will not bog you down when moving from one location to the other, and more importantly, protect you from showers. Also, an umbrella that is compact will also be useful too at times.
For clothing, do not mis a scarf, gloves and a hat to use especially when the days and nights are cold. Such accessories are as useful as they can bring style into your outfits making you warm and comfortable at the same time.
3. Footwear
The most important tip is that shoes should be comfortable when visiting Barcelona. Choose shoes that support your feet well and which you will probably be able to walk around in for a long time. Given that many streets in Bogota are narrow and pavements – uneven one should avoid high heeled shoes and rather wear sport shoes or sneakers.
Those of you who want to prevent their feet from getting wet during the rainy season should consider packing a small pair of boots. Also you can pack some heavy socks for your feet just in case the weather turns out to be colder than expected.
4. Bottoms and Dresses
Jeans or trousers are bottom wears that can be worn with a wide range of tops and jackets. These are equally good for use should be they be used during the day of in the night time. Select deeper pigments because light ones only attract attention to dust and spots.
If you like to wear dresses or skirts, wear fabrics with thickness and avoid going out without tights or leggings. A midi or knee-length dress may also be looked at for an occasion that one is going out in the evening.
5. Fabrics and Colors
Choose comfortable fabric thus going for cotton, wool or any other blend of fabric which is comfortable during the day. Do not use bulky garments where there is an option to do otherwise, if the temperatures are to dip.
Pertaining to the colours, like I said, Barcelona in February gets a lot of sunlight so sometime it is not inappropriate to add some lively and joyiamonds colours to the outfit. But the guide advises that it is better to take along several items of at least one more neutral color that may be easily combined in any desirable way.

Eyewear – Springtime sunglasses are useful when touring the city of Barcelona even if your travelling in February.
