Sitges Surfing 2009…..

January 20, 2009/in Sports/by keith@gaysitgesguide.com

While the rest of Spain seems to be suffering a cold spell… Yesterday, Sitges was enjoying an unseasonably warm afternoon!

And as the Surf came up, the weather was perfect for the Surfing boys of Sitges to come out and play! Its been a while since we saw them out!

The Big Kahuna Store offers everything you need in Sitges to go surfing and is located at the end of C.Jesus.

Most of the surfing takes place beyond the Calipolis hotel, closer to the Terramar end of Sitges… as San Sebastian Beach currently resembles a building site to make way for the promenade that will connect the nudist beach area of Balmins to the heart of the town!

Those of you who want a sneak-peak at the airport can get a preview… but you have to work for it. They are testing the airport over the next 6 months to iron out the kinks and they need thousands of people to help. Check out the airport’s website for details.
