BIGGEST Beach party!⛱️🌊🍹🥳
One week today we celebrate the BIGGEST beach party of the year!
June 23rd is the Eve of San Juan & and it’s a BIG deal in these parts as these photos from last year show.
The locals head to their nearest beach at sunset to enjoy supper & a few drinks before heading into the waves at midnight.
It’s a fabulous, magical evening that dates back centuries and there are many rituals that accompany it; some people jump the waves & make a wish, others throw petals, but where I live in Alfaz del Pi it simply signifies the start of summer; the knowledge we’ve a couple of months of summer fun ahead of us and it’s absolutely lovely to see everyone you know, on the beach in Albir enjoying a picnic with friends and family.
So if you are going to be in or around Benidorm next week, grab a towel and some snacks and head to the beach at sunset, for a magical occasion!
Happy Tuesday folks!
