Sitges has become a must-visit destination that attracts people from all generations, including members of the LGTBIQ + collective. Here, tradition and modernity go hand in hand in perfect harmony. Get ready to immerse yourself in the paradise that are Sitges' beaches!
The first you need to know about Sitges and its beaches is that this beautiful Catalan town is twinned with the city of San Sebastián (Gipuzkoa). This is why the town's main beach was named after the city and why it features a section of railing from La Concha de San Sebastián.
Looking beyond this interesting fact, the Playa de San Sebastián in Sitges is considered one of the best urban beaches in the world according to the New York Times. This shallow family beach offers wonderful views of Sitges, as well as backing onto the perfect promenade to take a stroll and discover Sitges on foot.
If you are looking for beaches boasting a privileged location and quality services, Playa de la Fragata and Playa de la Ribera are perfect for you. These beaches are particularly popular with tourists on account of how close they are to the centre of Sitges. Enjoy a great time here in the company of your family and friends.
Although they are a little further from the centre, these two beaches boast long stretches of sand and are usually less crowded than the more central beaches. They are the perfect option for getting away from it all and enjoy a little peace and quiet!
This beach, hidden away and only accessible on foot from a small ravine, is one of the favourite corners of LGBT visitors in Sitges. And it's no wonder! In 1930, it was the first self-proclaimed gay beach in the world and today this well-known nudist cove has its own beach bar.
Although getting there is no mean feat, its crystal-clear waters make this privileged setting an authentic paradise for enjoying nature in its purest form.
Known for its relaxed atmosphere and nudist area, this beach is the best option for those looking for peace and quiet and to enjoy the freedom offered by the sea. This beach also boasts a privileged location, between Aiguadolç and Sitges old town.
And we cannot mention Aiguadolç without mentioning its beach... Boasting a more familiar but quiet atmosphere, this sandy area is a veritable treasure on account of the surrounding nature. And if that were not enough, this beach can be reached on foot from the town centre! Nature and a central location, the best of both worlds!
Wondering how to travel to Sitges from Barcelona? It couldn't be easier! Thanks to its privileged location, Sitges is just a short ride from Barcelona and the surroundings area taking the Rodalies (Commuter) train service. Once you arrive at Sitges train station, the town centre and its beautiful beaches are just a short walk away. There are no excuses for missing this dream destination!
Get ready to experience an unforgettable beach holiday in Sitges, where tradition, modernity and wonderful beaches come together to give you a unique experience. This heavenly setting is waiting to welcome you with open arms!
