Do you miss the beach? If you are looking for a spot where to sunbathe in the middle of November, perhaps you should travel to the island where summer never ends.
Of course that island exists! This is for real. There is an island quite close to Europe where summer stretches throughout the year. You only need to bring your swimming attire with you. And to have someone tell you where to find that place where the mild sun chooses to stay 330 days a year…
24 hours immersed in a city that grows in the middle of the sea
It seems that there is a city in the middle of the sea, a city that never ceases to glow. If you only have 24 hours to get to know it, then you’d better hurry. For they say there is a lot to see …
And they say there is a city that never sleeps right on the edge of the sea. Especially during the nights of the Womad Festival, where not even bores or sad souls wish to stay home. A giant wave of music from one hundred continents soaks the streets during these nights. We are in the middle of November, and three steps from the beach people jump out of bed to go dancing...
Rumour has it there is a city that stands on the edge of the ocean, from where hundreds of ships set sail each November to cross the Atlantic. And the island’s fine weather is the one to blame for their mooring there. Summer or winter, they are always followed by a mild sun that never seems to rest. A mild weather that works as a magnet to lure skippers to the ARC, the great rally for cruisers that gathers one hundred thousand different pennants on countless masts…
A message has been found in a bottle that tells of a city rising after the last port that sailors find at the ocean’s gateway. A place that hides its best treasure even from tourists arriving on a cruise. There, they keep something that makes the city a different place from any other in Europe. A secret they never reveal. They wish to keep it just for themselves... Someone who’s been there says they rarely mention where they hide their treasure.
That must be it! I am sure it is the city sailors mention when they miss the good weather.
It must be

Don Juan Tenorio chases Doña Inés along narrow streets in Vegueta.
Every year it’s the same story during the Theatre Nights season at the capital city. The fine weather, the long hours at the beach, the great wine from Monte Lentiscal, and, above all, the full moon, make the beau use all his talents at the Vegueta old district.
You cannot miss everything that is going on at this very moment at PALMITOS PARK
