have also stayed at Sitges at Camping Garrefor. The former is a huge campsite but they take camping cheques off season i seem to remember and the latter was in Sitges which has a lovely beach promenade and restaurants

Yes. Good site. We stayed there in September and used Camping Cheques.
Sometimes the water in the shower blocks was cold. If you go there, use the newer block for nice hot water.
If you go into Sitges, be advised that the OVERWHELMING percentage of the tourists are MALE (about 10 to 1) Embarassed

Also have a ride down to Port Aventura in Salou (Universal Studios Theme park) about an hours drive away.

Agree with all the Gaudi and Picasso suggestions would also suggest Sunday lunch of fish and seafood by the harbour then a stroll on the beach. This city has everything!

Everyone is right! This is a great city and one of the best places to visit in Europe... It has something for everyone, art, architecture,good food and I can recommend the football as good value...

However, please be aware that you do not have to be in the city to be vulnerable to theft... We were advised by our site manager to park on the Airport as this has excellent CCTV and security. And we can tell you that there are alot of cameras around the parking areas and on the entrance and exits to the car park. In fact every license plate is photographed and matched to the issued ticket on entry so no one can get out without the right ticket to the original vehicle.

With all of this we felt quite secure until we returned to our van that evening about 9.30 to find that it had been broken into and most of the electrical stuff etc taken... Following our discussion with airport security I can confirm that all the cameras do not work except the ones that record the license plate, furthermore trying to get a report from the police for insurance purposes was more than traumatic and we eventually left the airport at around 2.30 am.

The thieves stole my daughters mobile phone from the van and when we recieved the bill we could trace them as they made calls through Spain and then into Italy before the the phone was barred... So maybe its not just the locals...

I also shared the Police waiting room with an American who had his car hit a boy on a motorscooter whilst travelling off the airport.. When he and his wife got out to check on the boy a gang of youths took his car and while his back was turned the scooter boy got up and took off on the bike. So please be wary about this sort of thing....

Please no one park here, the stress of dealing with the Spanish Authorities compounds an unplesant situation ten fold...

Irrespective of our experiences we would go back to a marvellous city, we would though leave our van on site and use the train next time.
