Fiestas and Events in August |
Fiestas and Events for August 2008
9th - 15th August, Almunecar Annual Fair (Feria)
From Saturday August 9 until Friday 15 (a local holiday) there are a range of activities, events, concerts and shows that not only take place around the town and beaches but at night centres in the main Feria ground where the Friday market is usually held. This year many of the events are free to enter, and if you have never been it is well worth the experience. Not only is there all the fun of traditional fairground attractions but there are various casetas to see, eat and drink in! Often until the very early hours of the next morning.

15th August, Almunecar, Procession of Virgin del Antigua

Known as the
Spanish Riviera,
you'd be hard
pressed to find
a more desirable
vacation experience
than in the Costa
Tropical de Granada.
With its lush
gardens, beautiful
coastline, and
gorgeous mountains,
you'll fall in love.
When you visit
again, book with
Mediterranean rentals
in the area. You´ll
experience the
best of resort
accommodation
by staying in a
Spanish timeshare
without any
of the commitment
of second
home ownership.
