Sitges is only small, it takes about ten minutes to walk around the key parts of the town but its coastline does stretch for miles. More familiar to the mature gay man, 30 years plus, and primarily couples Sitges will offer a peaceful and enjoyable sun-drenched holiday.

The beaches where men parade in very small, tight swim wear the town is more fitting for the male gay than female. It hosts a gay nudist beach, a family nudist beach, a gay beach and a free-for-all beach.

The town itself has retained its look and feel as a small Spanish community, with small side streets and buildings that remain intact since the beginning of the 20th Century. Sitges has countless gay bars, restaurants, coffee shops, clothes shops and a handful of bars. There is something for every scene here.

If visiting Sitges it is best to go between May and September, don't make the mistake of going between October and March because it is always very quiet and most venues have shut down for the winter.

Sitges is also popular with the Spanish as a holiday destination, so there is a real mix of people - plus Barcelona is only a 20-minute train away with buses running through out the night.
