Flying to Sitges, Barcelona

If you’re comming from further afield than Europe, you will be glad to know that a number of airlines have increased their capacity and direct routes to Barcelona Airport, which is only 30 minutes from Sitges. Here are the recent highlights from the major carriers.

More seats to Atlanta: from May onwards, Delta Air Lines will increase the number of seats that are available on its daily flight to Atlanta. 32 extra seats will be available on each flight, amounting to a total of 960 seats each way every month.

New flight to Argentina: Aerolíneas Argentinas has announced that there are to be more flights to Buenos Aires from 11 June. The airline will thus be offering 988 new seats each way every month.

More flights to Southeast Asia: Singapore Airlines will introduce a new weekly flight on 4 July. This will result in an increase of 1,112 more seats per month in both directions between Barcelona and Singapore and Southeast Asia.

Beaches Sitges

This weekend saw the beaches packed with goodlooking guys, on holidays and in from Barcelona. Great! Maricia, our roving photographer for GaySitgesGuide.com, took some great shots while we were left to recover from an extended night out.

Remember, this weekend will be an extra long weekend as the Bank Holiday in most countries falls on a Tuesday, which means most people will be in Sitges for an extended stay, especially for the Bears Weekend.

First time in Sitges?

/in /by

From the queries and requests we have been receiving over the past few weeks, it appears there will be a lot of first-time visitors to Sitges this year, or as we like to call them, “Sitges Versions”. We know you’ve seen lots of photos of Sitges already, but here are 3 that show a unique view of the town…. Sitges from the Air and the Sea.

Sitges from the Air

This view shows the main beaches along with Santa Tecla Church in the background.

Above you can see the other side of Sitges, with the hotel Terramar at the end of town.

Sitges from the Sea

The Gay Beach above is popular year round, but especially from May to October. Its right in front of the Calipolis hotel so you can’t miss it.

We’ll be producing a “First Time Guide to Sitges” in the near future so keep a look out. Be sure to sign-up for our newsletter to get the latest information delivered to your inbox. You could win a beautiful ipod player and docking station.

San Jordi, The Day of the Book and The Rose!

/in /by

The Day of the Book and the Rose

The legend of the knight Saint George is the basis of the event. Saint George was a Roman soldier born in what is now Turkey. After attacking and slaughtering a dragon which was going to eat a princess he became an example of the triumph of knowledge over ignorance, a model of bravery in the service of love.

The brilliant knight Saint George gives his name to this festival: a festival of books, of the rose – red as a symbol of passion – and of lovers. Normally the man offers a rose to the woman and she offers him a book. Gay boys and girls can improvise we guess…This springtime practice can be altered, however, with each person giving the other a book and a rose.

A special fair will be held on pssg. de la Ribera this Sunday the 22’nd where you will be able to purchase your Rose and Your book….depending on which side of the fence you sit!

Another Monument to Photo!

Sitges Monument

Those of you have ever walked down the steps from the church will know what a breathtaking sight it can be as you turn at the bottom of the stairs. Now it has a new attraction in the form of 3 new statues.

Sitges Attractions

We think they will probably become the second most photographed monument in Sitges judging by the number of people taking shots of the statues last weekend.
