There are many stories about pirates and bandits in the area of Sitges, here we tell you one that explains where the name comes from the beach of the Frigate.
Around the year 1700, the entire Mediterranean coast was affected by pirate attacks and Sitges was no exception. To defend against these attacks, a frigate was built that was hidden in an inlet of the sea, just below where today is the emblematic parish church of Sant Bartomeu i Santa Tecla (known as Iglesia de La Punta) . This was how this beautiful corner of Sitges acquired its current name "The Frigate".
