🗺️ An Atlantic crystal circuit

I honk in El Poril and turn to the 200 m red buoy: the coastal triangle, protected by Los Ajaches, offers calm seas and sandy bottoms with volcanic rocks. Those of 3 km go around twice and cross Playa Chica with their little boats; those of 1.5 km complete one. A safe and spectacular route to feel the open sea without leaving the coast.

🎉 Seafaring party with a Tiñosera soul

Here the clock is an excuse: the whole town is turning around. Jolateros on display, street flags and finely tuned bells announce the Fiestas del Carmen. You cross meta between aromas of jares, mojo and wrinkled potatoes, with a party and a multilingual speaker celebrating each finisher. Rather than competing, you come to feel grouchy for a day.
