The climate of Sitges (Spain)
Sitges is a small town located in the northeastern part of Spain in
the Catalonia region in the Barcelona province. The city of
Barcelona
is located a few kilometers from Sitges. Sitges is often used by
locals and tourists as a refuge to escape the crowded city. Sitges is
also known as the Gay Capital of Spain. Several gay bars and
discotheques can be found here. The annual Gay parade is also held
here. Sitges has a warm Mediterranean climate strongly influenced by
the Mediterranean Sea. Because of this influence extremes in weather
are uncommon. During the warmest days of the year an ever blowing sea
breeze offers some cooling. Precipitation is quite evenly spread out
over the year with a peak during fall.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
