This old fisherman's quarter is by the beach, to the south of the zoo and on the other side of the Estación de Francia railway station. It was built in the mid-1700s with straight, narrow streets and it still retains the village atmosphere. In summer the place is full of beach crazy people, and due to its characteristic charm and the plethora of fish restaurants, this place is worth a visit. The Sant Joan festivities are celebrated with fervor here on the 23 of June, with bonfires, traditional dances, and spectacular firework displays until dawn. Review © 2009, Wcities |
