Op-Ed: Fiesta de la Virgen del Carmen: A special event in Fuengirola


Monday is a public holiday on the south coast of Spain, for a very good reason. The annual Fiesta de la Virgen del Carmen is on the agenda.
The Virgen del Carmen is the patron saint of fishermen.
On the evening of July 16, the fishing villages and towns up and down the southern coast of Spain, celebrate a special event, where the fishermen pay tribute to their saint, and also take her for a spin out to sea... read more and view photos.
