Sitges gay guide

When it guide to gay travel, Spain is one of the best and most exciting destinations you can visit. Sitges is well-known for its Mediterranean beaches, pretty narrow streets, stunning marina and especially for its gay scene. The gay scene is so prominent here in Sitges, it takes centre stage in the main part of town.

This is not just a town or city with a gay scene; in our opinion it is a gay town! What a lot of people do not realise is that they can easily visit from Barcelona which is very popular. Sitges is just 30 minutes southwest from Barcelona by train — see below for instructions. Being gay in Sitges, like Barcelona and Madrid, is just another very normal part of society and no one notices the many gay couples walking around hand in hand.

Add to this the many gay bars, gay beaches, hotels and shops and you can start to see why Sitges is its own mini gay mecca. If you want the best selection of gay bars, you usually need to travel to the capital city. However, when you travel to most small beach towns you feel lucky to even get one! However, Sitges completely breaks this rule because whilst it most certainly is a small, beautiful and quaint town, it has over gay gay bars, gay cruise bars and clubs — rivaling the likes of Barcelona and Madrid!

This square is full of small bars with outdoor seating and is where everything starts. We also love to people watch so this was also a good spot for an afternoon cocktail. This is probably one of the most well known bars.

It can be found on the square itself and the star of the show here is Lady Diamond so expect some hilarious drag acts. The terrace opens from am serving breakfast and food throughout the day. The bar is open from 5pm gay to 3am, when its traditional to move onto a late night club that will take you through to the sitges hours.

Bear in mind — 3am is NOT classed as early hours for Spaniards! Later on in the evening it becomes more lively with drag shows and cocktails being served. The waiters here were also very cute! All the bars here are very close by. We actually came here every night during Sitges Pride as we found this had some of the best drinks offers, a good sized seating area outside and a very friendly crowd.

This is one of the longest running gay bars in Sitges and attracts all types of people of all ages. Expect drag shows every night in summer and for it to always be busy. When it hits 2am onwards it is time to move on from a bar and go to one of the larger dance venues to party until the early guides — during our visit for Sitges Pride we barely slept, they do everything so much later in Spain!

This is considered the most popular and the place to be. It has the largest dance floor out of all the clubs, 3 bars and gets very busy in the height of summer. Expect this bar to be packed wall to wall with attractive guys, and a typically younger crowd.
