What to do in Sitges in one day
10/4/2025

We suggest some of the best plans to do in Sitges in one day: enjoy its beaches, walk around its old town or visit its museums. Are you coming to discover Sitges with us?

Parish church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla

Built in the 17th century, the parish church of San Bartolomé and Santa Tecla is one of the essential places to see in Sitges. We recommend you get to the Sitges church by climbing the stairs that connect the Sitges waterfront with the Plaça del Baluard.

In addition to marveling at its asymmetric silhouette, so particular that it stands majestically on a small hill with the Mediterranean at its feet, don't forget to look at the sculpture “The Mermaid” (the work of Pere Jou) and in the Baluard Canyon (a replica of one of the 6 canyons that defended Sitges at the end of the 18th century).

After visiting the interior of the church, enjoy the views offered by the viewpoint of the Plaça del Baluard. And if you come in the afternoon... get ready to experience a sunset unique!

Racó de la Calma and Palau Maricel de Sitges

After visiting the Sitges church, continue walking around Carrer Fonollar until you find one of the most beautiful places to see in Sitges: the Racó de la Calma. Around it you will find the entrances to Cau Ferrat Museum and the Maricel complex (Maricel Museum and Palau de Maricel). It is highly recommended to book a guided tour at Sitges Museums to discover in its interior modernist style rooms such as the Saló d'Or, the Saló Blau, the Sala Capella, the terraces or the cloister, from where you can enjoy some Spectacular views.

If you keep walking down the street, you will arrive at Baluart Vidal-Quadras, which will give way to one of Sitges' most beloved beaches: Platja de Sant Sebastià.

Sitges Old Town and Old Town

Believe us that you don't know Sitges until you get lost in its narrow cobblestone streets of the historic center. As you stroll through the old town of Sitges, you will discover elements of the rich architectural heritage Sitges like the old one medieval wall, modernist buildings built by the Indians after making their fortune in the Americas or ancient Fishermen's houses.

Some of the streets to see in Sitges and which we recommend getting lost in are:

  • Carrer de la Davallada
  • Carrer de Sant Joan
  • Carrer d'en Bosch
  • Placa de l'Ajuntament de Sitges
  • Carrer Carreta
