Sitges, the Mediterranean Golden Beach15 golden fine sand beaches along more than 2,5 miles of coast in the city centre (and other 7 beaches in the rest of the municipal district) make Sitges one of the best places in Spain and in the Mediterranean to sunbathe and enjoy the sea. The European Union honours every year Sitges' beaches with several blue flags, at the time as the Catalan Autonomous Government (Generalitat de Cataluña) does credit to the good-quality and environmental health of the waters enjoyed by bathers. Because of this, tourists christened Sitges as "The Golden Beach of the Mediterranean sea" years ago already. A list of the Sitges’ beaches follows below: Behind the "Atlántida" discotheque:"Roses" beach "L'Home Mort" beach (nudist beach) "Les Coves" beach "Cap dels Grills" beach Along the Sitges seaside promenade:"Les Anquines" beach (beside the "Playa Golf" Hotel) "Terramar" beach "La Barra" beach "La Riera Xica" beach "L'Estanyol" beach "La Bassa Rodona" beach "La Ribera" beach "La Fragata" beach Behind the church:"San Sebastián" beach Beside the "Aiguadolç" marina:"Els Balmins" beach (nudist beach) "Aiguadolç" beach Between Sitges and Castelldefels:"Cala Forn" cove "Cala Vallcarca" cove "Vallcarca" beach "Cala Morisca" cove "Garraf" beach "Cala Ginesta" cove "Les Botigues" beach Activities and services at Sitges' beachesSitges' beaches mostly boast any kind of services for bathers such as lifeguards, public toilets, swim conditions signs (flags of different colours), sun lounges rental, and so on. Nearly all architectural barriers have been removed, making beaches accessible to all bathers. Besides, "L'Estanyol" beach boasts a Red Cross first-aid post. Some beaches offer little sailing boats, jet-skis, pedal boats, windsurfing boards and other vessels to rent. Other ones, like the beaches of " La Fragata" and " La Bassa Rodona", often set up sporting activities like beach volleyball games or Aqua-Gym master classes. It's difficult even for the most demanding bather not to enjoy the splendid beaches of Sitges to the maximum. |
