Summer Solstice Sunrise Yoga on the Beach

There's a quiet kind of madness to setting an alarm for dawn on your holiday, but this one earns it. The town puts on a free session down on Platja de Turisme from 6am, timed so you're moving as the sun climbs out of the Mediterranean. It opens gently with breathing work, then builds to the big one: 108 sun salutations, with proper rest breaks worked in so it never tips into an endurance test.

Things wind down with a long relaxation and a closing meditation while the beach slowly fills with early swimmers. The instructor leads by demonstration, so the language gap barely matters and complete beginners won't feel out of place. Bring a mat or towel, water, and something warm for the early chill. Afterwards the seafront cafes are just waking up, which is a fine reward for being out so early.
