Summer visit to Barcelona

Considering a visit to Barcelona this September but have not been to Spain before, I'm just looking for thoughts or suggestions about sites or places to visit north or south of Barcelona. I have a campsite for Barcelona which is adjacent to the Mediterranean. Thanks in advancent

If you're looking for somewhere authentic, not too touristy (and really cheap with lots of safe free parking on massive uncluttered beaches) try Deltebre about half a day's drive south of Barcelona. It is nice and green in contrast to the typical arid Spanish countryside. Depending on when you plan to go it could be a little warm.

Collioure over the border in France is very nice as mentioned as is nearby Argeles
