Sitges
A seaside town 35 km southwest of Barcelona, with a white church on the headland, 17 beaches and an art museum.
Sitges is one of Catalonia's most popular seaside towns. The churches of Sant Bartomeu and Santa Tecla on the headland are its landmarks, and whitewashed alleys in the old town lead down to the sea. Several sandy beaches are good for swimming, and the Cau Ferrat Museum, the former home of the modernist painter Santiago Rusiñol, is a highlight. The Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival in October and the Carnival in February are both famous. From Passeig de Gràcia or Sants station, take the R2 Sud train for about 35–45 minutes.
