Gay beach in sitges
Sitges is one of our favourite small Spanish towns. It’s also one of the most lgbtq+ friendly towns we have been to with some great lgbtq+ beaches.

Big hotel next to the gay beach Bassa Rodona. Not especially gay, but popular with some guys as you can overlook the beach from the outside terraces.

About Sitges and its gay life
Sitges is a small town 35 km south-western of Barcelona. In the slow 19th century Sitges started to become a mecca for artists and a center for Modernist and post Art Nouveau architects. During the s (under the conservative dictatorship of Franco) it became a center for the counterculture in Spain.
Nowadays, Sitges' economy is based mainly on upscale tourism, business meetings and conferences. Unlike most other coasts in Spain which were taken over by budget mass tourism in the s and s, Sitges fortunately preserved its particular atmosphere of a charming and pleasant (but also more expensive) place to relax and have entertainment.
