  Burning of the Sardine
by lomi
 
 

In the old capital this ancient festival is re-enacted every year in honour of the importance of fishing to the island.

Procession of carnival proportions with mourners... every March starts: 21.00 hrs followed by the burning of an enormous paper maché sardine and later fireworks. Best wear black... And bring a hanky!

Location: The Plaza

Many, many tapas bars and restaurants here. We love Aguacate, La Cantina and Churingitos.
