＋La Chalupa – A Nostalgic Ode to Summer Fun in Sitges
Glide over Mediterranean waters with La Chalupa, a playful art print inspired by the Mexican Lotería aesthetic and the unmistakable charm of pedal boats on Sitges’ beaches. Designed by French poster artist Cha for the Spanish Capsule™ collection, this piece captures the carefree joy of a summer day spent on the waves—a true symbol of seaside leisure.
Pedal Boats – A Timeless Beach Tradition
From childhood adventures to relaxing escapes, pedal boats (chalupars or hidropedales) are a staple of Sitges’ coastal charm. Found on several beaches along the town’s golden shores, they offer a fun, easy, and eco-friendly way to explore the Mediterranean. Whether you’re racing friends, sliding into the sea, or simply drifting under the sun, these vibrant watercraft evoke a sense of nostalgia and simple pleasures.
Did you know? The modern pedal boat has existed since the late 19th century and has remained a beloved rental option across Spain, France, and Italy. Sitges’ version, often bright yellow with slides, has become an iconic sight every summer.
Lotería Meets Coastal Adventure
Inspired by Lotería Mexicana, a traditional game of chance featuring beautifully illustrated cards, La Chalupa blends this classic visual style with the Mediterranean spirit. The bold yellow pedal boat with a slide, floating against a calming seafoam green background, perfectly captures the essence of Sitges’ beach life.
A Must-Have for Sea & Travel Lovers
