Position of Sitges

Sitges is a small town situated 35 km southwest from Barcelona, Spain. 

This place is one of the epicenters of gay manifestations in Europe.

The town is on the Mediterranean Sea and it also has beautiful and vivid beaches with the most famous one Costa Dorada (Golden Beach).

How to get to Sitges

It is quite easy to reach Sitges from Barcelona by train or by car.

Train will get you there within 35 minutes and the ticket is only 3 Euros.

You can chose your departure from Barcelona city center on Passeig de Gracia (with stopover) or directly from Sants - the main city train station. There are four trains every hour -two fast and two stopping ones. 

Going by car gives you two options-to take the local road C31 or to take the highway C32 which will cost you 5 Euros but is much more safe and convenient. 

In the case that your end point is exactly Sitges and you want only to pass by Barcelona, then you may choose the closest airport El Prat. This airport would be your choice if you are coming from abroad. There is also the smaller one Reus (Tarragona) or Girona, which is about 125 km away.  

What to visit in Sitges

Other important facts to know would be that Sitges has 11 beaches. If you do not like walking, which is more than recommended, than there is a taxi which can take you for a tour. Where to go? Cau Ferrat is a house owned by modernist painter Russinol and today there are many exhibitions and numerous parties held there.

Visitors coming between September 15th and 23rd will be able to participate in one of the greatest Spanish international festivals which have been held since 1321. 

Unlike Barcelona, here shops are open during Sunday. Furthermore, pedestrian streets are quite crowded. Apart from local souvenirs, there are also fashion shops but mind that some of them open just after 5.30 p.m. until 9.00 p.m. 

After taking a city tour, great places to have lunch would be Paseig de la Ribera (under the old church) and Fragata restaurant. Local fish and seafood are specialties. You can also take a cup of coffee or dessert in some of the many coffee shops along the waterfront. 

From the beginning of the 20th century many motor races have been held in Sitges. If you love motorbikes and fast driving, Stiges is the right place for you.
