Just 30 minutes from the center of Barcelona, we have the town of Sitges, a beautiful place on the Catalan coast. It is the perfect place for a day or two getaway from Barcelona, especially if you go with a group of friends.
Sitges used to be a fishing village with a privileged location, sheltered by the Garraf massif. Now it is a somewhat small town, but with a vast cultural and gastronomic offer due to its origins. The result has been a place where everyone has something to do.
What to do in Sitges?
One of the characteristics of Sitges is that you can walk all over the city. Therefore, doing several activities in a single day is ideal and getting to know all its charming corners. This kind of place makes it an excellent option to go without making so many plans and still enjoy everything it has to offer.
Of course, Sitges is full of beaches. They are pretty well known in the area, but they are not the only thing to do. The promenade offers a beautiful view at sunset, and the San Sebastián Beach is the visitors’ favorite one. Water sports also abound, as in any coastal town.
Anyway, it is well worth going to this seaside town for reasons other than the beach. The walks around town are pleasant, as well as the gastronomic culture. Also, all the activities are convenient because it is a town that doesn’t get too crowded even during the summer vacations.
One of the epic places to visit is L’Hort de Can Falç, a lovely garden where events are regularly organized. An attractive cultural plan usually coincides with a concert or festival in summer.
Calle del Pecado is one of the best places to see in the city. It is the perfect area to go out for drinks and enjoy the nightlife in the city. As a curious fact, it is one of the references among the LGBT+ bars.
A place to go with friends
Sitges is a fantastic city to visit with friends with all these activities. A big group of friends can go there in a short time from Barcelona and have a great time during a weekend because there is always something to do together.
Beautiful beaches are nearby, many bars with a vibrant nightlife, a more than fascinating gastronomic culture to enjoy together… Sounds like the perfect place for a mini vacation with friends. And all this is without mentioning the accommodation.
There are plenty of villas for large groups. They are just the thing to get the whole group close enough to go out together, but without having to share so much space.
A suitable villa will offer comfortable bedrooms, options for dining together or in small groups, gardens with separate areas, a pool area and grills, and outstanding customer service. They are places where groups live a luxury hotel experience without being so expensive.
The magic behind all this is just the company. The lodging is much more economical because you pay by fractions. The best thing about this is that the budget can be used for group activities in the city.
All the entertainment sites are within walking distance. It is very convenient if you go in large groups that cars become a problem. Everyone can spend the day at one of the 17 beaches, surfing, eating at a restaurant, shopping, and visiting nightclubs if they wish.
At the end of the day, everyone can return to a utopian village where they can rest or even spend the night. In this city, going to a villa means the fun never stops.
