Garraf Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Spain's small holiday treasure, Sitges Sitges! This is where many Spanish artists live and is one of Europe's favorite holiday destinations! If you are a little bit tired of the architecture of Barcelona, take a trip to the Mediterranean town 35 km from Barcelona, soak up the sun and blow the sea breeze... Come out, all the way are beautiful houses, green doors and windows with decorative flowers, this is winter, spring is it! Rows of tall palm trees on the promenade, immediately bring people into vacation mode! But in the seaside city, there will be castles with such defensive functions, medieval buildings, bursts of sound of the waves, and a feeling of crossing! When it comes to summer, it will be crowded with parasols and deck chairs plus countless people to recuperate. In the winter, there is no vocal play, a clean, slowly enjoy... The sea is a magical existence. I have felt more than once: when I stepped into the sea, everything was dissolved! Blowing the sea breeze, basking in the warm sun, don't want anything, let yourself vent Just close your eyes and feel...... If you have arranged Barcelona in your itinerary, make room One afternoon time is reserved for Sitges. This experience must be great value. Of course, pick a good weather! Transportation: From Barcelo by train, you can reach Sitges town in about 40 minutes.

A day at Sitges

Getting There - Less than 40 min. by train. Round trip that cost less than 10 euro. Attractions - The sidewalk by the Mediterranean Sea was a breathtaking while discovering the small town and its narrow streets. The Saint Bartomeu Church overlooking the town with a memorable sunset scenery. Many beaches, the one close to the downtown is large enough and in the morning a group of people would play volleyball for everyone to watch. Food & Restaurants - You have your pick in this small town. Many coffees and restaurants. Shopping - Loads of local stores and prices are decent compared to Barcelona. Overall, a nice and quient town not far from the bustling city of Barcelona.

I went to Barcelona several times, every time I had to go to the charming town of Sitges, about an hours drive from the city. Here, the air is "relax".

Sitges, a small town about half an hour's train from Barcelona, Spain, is located on the Mediterranean Sea. It is so beautiful everywhere. A rosy church is located on the outstretched cape and is surrounded by snow-white houses. The cloud is low on the small town, as if it came to a fairy tale city, the buildings in the small town are also very characteristic ~ all kinds of bright colors are gathered here, and shine with the Sunshine Coast~

Sitges is a coastal town in Spain's Catalonia

Sitges is a coastal town in Spain's Catalonia region, southwest of Barcelona, backed by the mountainous Parc Natural del Garraf. It's known for its Mediterranean beaches and seafront promenade lined with grand mansions. The compact old town and surrounding streets are filled with shops, restaurants, and many gay bars and nightclubs. The Maricel Museum and Cau Ferrat Museum showcase Catalan and other Spanish art. Even though Sitges' Old Town isn't particularly huge, it's worth visiting, especially the old fishermen's quarter with its white homes with blue borders, as well as the 15th-century Church of Sant Bartomeu and Santa Tecla with its Baroque interior. This part of the town is well suited for your Instagram as well.
