We have been to Platje de Barceloneta, which is very central just round the corner from the marina at the South end of the Ramblas, easily walkable from the city centre. This was a good beach but not nude (most girls were topless). I think nudity is common at Sitges, some way to the South, you can easily get there by train, and the nude area is at the far (West) end. Sitges is a popular place for gays, and I do not know what it would be like for non-gays; the weather was bad when we went so noone on the beach. I do not know whether there are other nude beaches nearby, but there are many beaches going East/Northwards towards the border with France. Apart from beaches, Barcelona is a great city and well worth going to, as is the whole area of Catalonia.
