The Barcelona World Race is a new two-handed, non-stop round the world yacht race starting on the 11th November, 2007 [and to be held every four years]. For the first time, this race will see the world’s best professional sailors from both solo and fully crewed disciplines coming together to compete against each other in teams of two.

The race will pass Sitges on Sunday and should make a spectacular sight as it passes by the shore. You can view a copy of the promotional video below.

For further information visit the Barcelona World Race website.

This weekend saw the Sitges Surf Spectacular take place at the Port.

The event drew crowds eager to see some great surf-stunts performed along the coast.

Local surf heroes battled with pros from across Barcelona to compete for the top prize.

The port area is well worth a visit if you are in Sitges. There are some beautiful restaurants and shops along the port area…. not to mention the beautiful cars and yachts.

November the 4th sees one of the final races in the Catalan Cycling tour The XIII Pedalada Ecológica Popular Barcelona-Sitges is taking place at the weekend and we expect to see a record number of cyclists this year. If you are visiting Sitges, then beware that there will be traffic restrictions around the outskirts of the town from early Sunday morning.
