The coast of Sitges is one of the most popular and crowded of all the coastline of the peninsula, and its beautiful beaches and spectacular 24 hour atmosphere have made it one of the most popular gay friendy destinations in the country.
With more than four kilometres of coastline and some 18 beaches, this maritime town in the Garraf is the perfect place for a relaxing yet active holiday.
If you want to discover some of its best beaches, don’t miss out on what we have to tell you.
Beaches to suit all tastes
La Ribera beach (first picture) is the most famous and crowded beach in Sitges, and it is located right in front of the town centre. Precisely for this reason you will find all kinds of facilities and services on and around the beach, as there are plenty of bars, restaurants and shops along the promenade that surrounds it.
The very atmospheric beach of La Fragata and Sant SebastiĂ (second image) follow the previous one in popularity, and are one of the most typical sights of this town in the province of Barcelona. Both are located under the church of Sant Bartomeu and Santa Tecla, although the former is situated between two breakwaters and the old fishermen’s area.
If you want quieter and less central places you can visit the beaches of Aiguadolç (Blue Flag), the beach of L’Estanyol, Terramar or Les Anquines, among others.
The most popular is the semi-isolated Cala Morisca, although you will also be very comfortable at the less crowded beach of Roses or l’Home Mort (‘the dead man’) or at the urban Els Balmins, which offers a lot of facilities.
