Well, Gavin and I were up for the challenge and we wanted to see what all the hype was about, so we shelled out the 5€ per person for a round-trip ticket and made the 35 minute train ride to the beautiful seaside town located southwest of Barcelona. Once we got there and wandered through the narrow streets of this quaint town was early October Mediterranean bliss. Stiges is home to beautiful architecture set next to a picture perfect stretch of shoreline with stunning sandy beaches. Gavin and I dropped our things and headed straight for the surf (yes, there were waves) and were welcomed by the warm early Autumn waters of the Mediterranean Sea. It was magical.
I have to admit that we are quite skeptical when people recommend a beach, especially in a non-tropical climate, but Stiges was well worth the short train ride out of the crowded city. The next time we visit Barcelona, I want to spend a few nights in this great seaside town.
