Theres loads to do in Barca! Depending on what youre into...
The zoo is great. Theres loads of shops, bars and two beaches.
If you're into culture you should go see the sagrada familia (The cathedral that they are still building like 100 odd years after they started- i suspect that all those siestas are the reason it isnt complete yet) its wicked and you can go up one of the towers and get a great view of the city. Then theres parc du guel (sp?) a park designed by Gaudi, its pretty impressive. ANd theres also gaudis house and lots of other Gaudi designed buildings...
The harbour is cool too, lots of restaurants and things, and a cable car across the harbour.
Theres neu camp for sports/football fans.
And theres the olympic village, its impressive, but largely deserted these days
One important thing i will advise, try to avoid las ramblas at night, and if you have to go there, dont go alone, lots of foreign people get mugged there, and the muggers use hypodermic needles...
Newquay, i know nothing about lol
