I have returned from the bear week. Balmins is a great beach. The atmosphere amongst the bears is relaxed with all shapes and sizes and ages naturist and not. The non-gay are on the east side and the west sides packed with gay bears etc. The incline into the sea is very gradual so great for a party in the water playing or swimming. The sand underfoot makes his very comfortable. If you want a relaxed mainly gay beach Balmins in Bear week cannot be beaten. I am not a bear or chaser but my partner and I loved this beach. I have not been to Sitges at other times or to the other beaches as Balmins was so good.

This beach is where the bears, cubs and chasers gather for a nude swim. There is a chiringhito at the beach where you can buy food and drinks. Showers available at this beach.
