Sitges is located approximately 20 km south of Barcelona Airport. Frustratingly, there is no direct train from Barcelona Airport to Sitges (see below for more details). Therefore, you may choose to take the coach directly from the airport to Sitges. Alternatively, if you are travelling in a large group, it may be worth considering taking a taxi to Sitges. Barcelona Airport is the closest of all the airports to Sitges - therefore a taxi could prove to be a convenient and relatively cheap option.
It is also worth considering hiring a car for your stay in Sitges. The coastal drive from the airport is beautiful, if slightly hair-raising, due to the narrow winding seaside roads. Sitges itself is small, but the surrounding area of Garraf is known for its attractive landscape and vineyards.

If you are deciding whether to fly into Barcelona, Reus or Girona airports, it is worth considering all costs. If you find that a flight to Reus or Girona is cheaper than one to Barcelona Airport, make sure that you add up the other costs of further travel before making a booking. The money saved on the flight may be lost in the cost of transferring to Sitges. And, money aside, just think of that extra hour spent travelling when you could have been topping up your tan on the beach.
