Barcelona
Sitges Day Trip with Paella Lunch
Forty minutes down the coast to Sitges, with a three-course paella lunch by the sea
Food & Wine, Sightseeing
Why We Love it
Lunch is the reason to book it — six starters before the paella, regional wine alongside, homemade dessert after, at a restaurant facing the water.
The Experience
Eight hours from your hotel with a private English-speaking guide, driving the coastal road forty minutes southwest of Barcelona past the Garraf mountains to Sitges.
Sitges was a fishing village before it was anything else, and the streets still run narrow and whitewashed between 19th-century villas. Your guide walks you through them to the Palau de Maricel, a former noble residence above the water, and to the Baroque church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla on its cliff. Then the promenade, the beaches, and the Garraf rocks at the end of the bay.
Lunch is three courses at a restaurant on the seafront: six starters to open, along the lines of local anchovies, seasonal vegetables and seafood tapas, then paella, with regional wine throughout and homemade dessert to close.
My pick for couples and small groups who want a day out of Barcelona without a long drive, and for anyone who would rather build a day around a long lunch than another museum.
