There
is nowhere else anything like Sitges. Sitges is an amazing place, a paradise
for many, a place where everyone is made welcome, whatever their age, race,
sexual orientation or what have you. Families love it, nudists love it,
gay folk love it, everyone loves it because everyone gets along with everyone
else, and Sitges has something for everyone. It is a beautiful seaside
town that has been a major tourist resort since the 1800's when the affluent
Barcelonians built their beautiful weekend get-away homes here, of which
over 100 still stand. It's called the 'Jewel of the Mediterranean', and
rightfully so. It has some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, is
one of the most beautiful towns with it's many narrow, very typically Spanish
streets and a nightlife that compares with a town 10 times it's size, but
probably the most remarkable thing about Sitges is that everything is crammed
into an area that takes a mere 10 minutes to walk from one end to the other.
Everything you want is on your doorstep. From your hotel to the 400+ shops,
to the 11 beaches, to the countless bars, cafés and restaurants,
to the discos - it's all within a few minutes walk! Add to that the sheer
beauty of the place and it's easy to understand why everyone who comes
once, comes back again and again and again. But as if all that wasn't enough,
you have Barcelona an easy and amazingly cheap 35 minute train ride away.
A city with architecture that is out of this world and a nightlife (and
daylife) that is world class.
You
can't talk about Sitges without mentioning it's vibrant gay scene, something
the local council omits to mention in any of their tourist information,
yet it's a major part of Sitges and adds to it's unique, liberal ambiance,
bringing in many interesting and flamboyant people. We have however omitted
all gay locations from this guide and listed them at GaySitges.com
