Gay paradise, close to Barcelona.
Con
It isn't huge, so it loses some of its charm with time.
In a nutshell
A summer retreat destination for northern Eurpeans, good for a long weekend's relaxation.
7 Reviews What do you do in Sitges? Beach! bake in the sun, swim, swim and swim.........Sitges is the nearest place from Barcelona with nice sandy beaches...aside from Barceloneta of course which is inside Barcelona itself. We took the Renfe train for a half an hour ride from Barcelona Sants Estacio station.
7 Reviews If you visit the Museum Maricel, do not miss the "Sant Miquel" Tower, the "Saló d'Or" (Golden Hall), the "Saló Blau" (Blue Hall) and the cloister, with its magnificient views of the sea. I spent there almost half an hour...just looking around me, listening to the the seagulls and looking at the...
2 Reviews With hills and Old Sitges on one side and the Mediterranean on the other, the Passeig de la Ribera is the most scenic part of Sitges. The long boulevard hugs the bay and boasts numerous beaches and beautiful architecture. Many cafés and restaurants are also located here. As a result, Passeig de la...
4 Reviews Built in 1893 as a residence for Santiago Rusiñol, Cau Ferrat incorporates Gothic windows taken from the nonextant Sitges castle that once existed on the site. Cau Ferrat is adjacent to Maricel de Mar.
Esglesia de Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla
2 Reviews Dominating the skyline of Sitges, the Església de Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla dates from the 17th century. The octagonal tower, however, is a 19th century addition. The church replaced a previous 14th century Gothic structure, which in turn had been built over the ruins of a Romanesque chapel....
2 Reviews Walking (or cycling, or roller skating) along the Passeig Marítim gives you the opportunity of enjoying the beach, the view and finding also some artists, as painters, sculptors of sand or this man with his violin. Believe it or not, these pictures were taken in November.
3 Reviews Although not terribly ancient, the Maricel de Mar building is one of Sitges' most recognisable features. The building as it stands dates from 1911, but it was built on the foundation of an older chapel whose arches were incorporated in the existing building. It was rebuilt as a residence in an...

Rramos Says: We were looking forward to have a nice dinner in this restaurant after reading some of the reviews, what a mistake to say the least, in the present climate I don't think anybody is being frivolous with money but that is how it felt, my money has been wasted. Although the...
La Pinta, La Niña & La Santa María: Great and traditional food
Labrix Says: UPDATED ON JUNE 15 2011. Unfortunately, I was on La Santa María last weekend, and now it's not so good as I remembered :o(La Pinta, La Niña and La Santa María are the names of the 3 ships that Cristobal Colon used in the Spanish expedition that discovered America in 1492....
Parrots restaurant: My favourite restaurant in Sitges
Labrix Says: This is a gay restaurant but, obviously, is opened to everybody. The waiters are very kind and helpful, the dishes are excellent, and it's full of details, as, for example, a glass of cava with freeze raspberry liquor inside.
Can Marti Restaurant, Sitges: The best meal in 4 weeks of European travel
gaylordtrotsky Says: It was a Tuesday night. There was a monsoon beating down on the town and the main street, as it is designed to be (e.g. the stepping stones between shops in the road) was a raging torrent, so this wasn't the best night for us to sample the atmosphere, but what an experience...
Marypili: For girls and their friends
Labrix Says: In Sitges you can find a lot of bars for gays but, what about lesbians? The answer is Marypili, a nice little bar with a great terrace.They make excellent coffee, cocktails and now they also serve the typical vermouth at noon during the weekends.Besides, Michi the owner has...

Labrix Says: The T-10 card is a very useful way for moving in public transport. For going from Sitges to Barcelona you need a 3 zones card, but for moving just around Barcelona a 1 zone card will be enough.Apart of this, it has other advantages:- The T-10 card has 10 trips that can be...
Labrix Says: You can find most of the shops in Carrer Sant Francesc, Carrer Parellades, Carrer Major and Carrer Jesús. Curiosly, they make a cross with the Cap the la Vila in the middle.The sales begin every year in the 7 of January and the 1st of July.
Labrix Says: In march it's made a rally with antique cars from Barcelona to Sitges. They drive through the road C-31, also know as "carretera de las costas", that means road of the coast, it's a little road full of curves and spectacurar views of the sea. When the cars arrive to Sitges,...
Labrix Says: There's not a special tradition located in Sitges. For many people the main celebration is "Nochebuena" on 24th by night, but this tradition comes from the South of Spain. Christmas day, on the 25th, is celebrated in everywhere, in Catalunya is tradition to eat this day...
Labrix Says: Do you want to know what all this people are doing in the street? Is it a demonstration? Is it a "botellón"? No way...They're at "El Cable". This tapas bar is open since 1940 and it's a meeting point for the people of Sitges. It's so popular that, if inside it's full, people...
It is a famous homo beach but who cares?
klaudia Says: Hi,As Sitges is my favorite place to go to the beach, I will tell you that in September you can enjoy it as much as now, in June. In August a sea tide may cover a half of the beach, but in September all goes back to normal. I don't know anything about the hotel Plajador, but...
Labrix Says: Here you can see the carnival, the dancers, the percussion groups, the "diables" (devils) and the "Drac" (dragon) with their fireworks, the "castellers" (human high towers) and, of course, the people and some streets of the town.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDrXbgnkfLo
