30 minutes from Barcelona we can find Sitges, one of the jewels of the Mediterranean.

A village with many faces, modern and traditional, cosmopolitan and historical, we can discover some of the most interesting ingredients of spanish coast: spanish charm, nice beaches, cultural life, first rate hotels and restaurants...

Sitges, once a fishing village situated in an open bay, is actually one of the most important destinations of the Mediterranean sea. Beaches with clear waters, most of them awarded by EU (blue flags) and with all kind of service facilities, a rich history and an interesting urban centre make of Sitges a privileged destination.

What to see: You can visit som beautiful religious buildings such as the churches of Santa Tecla and Sant Bartomeu. You can also visit an interesting Gothic building such as Casa de la Vila (19th century), and Cau Ferrat, the studio of painter Santiago Rusiņol. Thanks to that artist Sitges became an artist an bohemian village that you can still recognize visiting Sitges old city centre.

Sitges cultural life has an special event that we have to recommend: Sitges International Film Festival, one of the most important cinema festivals in Europe.
