Fiestas de barrio en honor de San Juan Bautista

Multimedia Gallery

The inhabitants of Tavernes follow precisely the folk traditions of the magical night of San Juan. Thus, the festival starts with a 'correfoc', a firework show on the beaches of the municipality. Later on, dozens of bonfires are lit on the sand. People surround or jump over them as they make a wish. To complete the ritual, participants on the night of San Juan's wet their feet in the sea water from midnight on.
