Festival of St John - 23rd June

Spain is famous for it's festivals and we have one coming soon - June 23rd sees the festival of San Juan which is held on the shortest night of the year and involves bonfires on the beaches and setting off fireworks.

Have a look at the following link for further info

We're really looking forward to seeing this but I'm not so sure about jumping over a bonfire! I'll tell you all about it when it happens, including any bonfire jumping that may take place! Apparently, there is also a dash for the sea at midnight to wash away the evil spirits and be granted eternal beauty - well, we can always try.
