ARCHIVED - Until August 15 Annual summer fiestas in La Azohía
Live music, walking the greasy plank competition and plenty to eat and drink outside the church of La Azohía
The annual fiestas in the coastal village of La Azohía are always held in the first half of August, leading up to the national holiday of Assumption Day on August 15 and coinciding with the peak of the summer tourist season, and as usual in 2022 there are a host of family-based activities in which both Spaniards and non-Spaniards are invited to take part.
