Sitges, somewhere over the rainbow…

Sitges is just such a positive place to live in! The lifestyle, the weather, the people. You have to be here to truly experience all the town has to offer. Today it rained all day. Unusual for Sitges. And wow, were we treated to a spectacular sunset.

Sitges, sea view

The sun sets over the Dolce Hotel every evening, but on Wednesday an exceptional rainbow covered the town, the first one I’ve seen in Sitges in 12 months.

The view from the Terramar hotel was even more spectacular. You could be anywhere in Spain as you watch the unusual palm trees sway in the evening breeze. If you are looking to have an evening cocktail then we highly recommend the front bar of the hotel. Here you can sip some spectacular concoctions while you watch the sun slip through the Mediterranean.

Just another day in Sitges and another reason to visit, any time of the year!

If you have the time and the cash, we highly recommend that you take to the sea and view Sitges from a different perspective. There are several operators in the Port who will rent a yacht or cruiser by the day with its own crew. Prices range from EUR 600 off season. The bigger the boat, the more expensive the rates.

The Gay Beaches of Sitges

Last weekend saw some beautiful weather grace the shores of Sitges. We received many requests and questions from visitors already here, on how to get to the second Gay beach in Sitges – Playa del Muerto. Some people didn’t know it even existed.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

First, head down to the end of the main promenade, twoards the Terrmar Hotel. On a warm day this can take anything up to 30 mins dodging rollerbalders, skaters, gay couples, buggies and old ladies! Alternatively you can take a taxi from the train station for EUR 10 approx.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

Follow the train tracks by the sea. Don’t be tempted to take a short cut through the tunnels. The trains run at over 200kph here. Be careful!

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

You will know you are on the right track, padon the pun, when you begin to see the grafitti marking out the “Gay Zone”.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

Take a left by this sign which points to Playa del Muerto. The beach has been popular with gay and naturist tourists since the early 1930’s when Sitges had a more bohemian feel.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

The beach is a little bit pebbly so you will need your flip-flops.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

There is a snack bar which offers cold drinks and sandwiches. Expect to pay a premium as its the only one for miles.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

Accross the train tracks is the gay crusing zone. Just follow this sign until you hit the woods.

Gay Beach Sitges, Playa Del Muerto

The wooded area attracts all ages and types. It is busy all year round, mostly in the afternoons and early evenings.
