It has finally happened. Summer is here, and that can only mean one thing: it’s the best time of year to enjoy our hotel in Sóller. The rays of sun feed the orange trees of this town located in the Serra de Tramuntana, meanwhile during the month of June, some of the best summer fiestas take place. Locals and tourists come together to commemorate the summer season and to share experiences during important dates like Sant Joan or Sant Pere. Would you like to know more about these two celebrations? Lluna Aqua Hotel will be giving you a detailed account in this blog article.
The magic of the flames of Sant Joan, near to our hotel in Sóller
Our hotel in Sóller is an establishment filled with history. Which is why the traditions and cultures of its town are unmissable to us. And Sant Joan is no exception. Every year on the 23rd of June all across the Mediterranean the summer solstice is celebrated. How? During the night, which happens to be the shortest of the year. And towns celebrate with fire. Lots and lots of fire. The legend says that the locals would do it to give the sun strength, which bit by bit will lose its power until the month of December, when then the shortest day of the year takes place. It is very typical for these celebrations to be carried on at the town’s beaches and coastlines, which means that by staying at our hotel in Sóller you can easily enjoy the celebrations of the Port of Sóller. Once you hit the sand and the bonfires are lit, those brave enough will jump over the fire three times and make a wish. Although there are others who prefer to honour tradition with a night time dip. You decide which one is for you!
Sant Pere, the patron saint of fishermen
Staying in the Port of Sóller this next celebration takes place during the last few days of June and the start of July. We’re talking about Sant Pere, the celebration of the maritime district of the Port of Sóller which commemorates the patron saint of fishermen. During the three days of the fiesta you will find sports and leisure activities for all the family and performance acts until the early hours of the morning. If you want to guarantee the best and closest accommodation to the celebrations, there’s no doubt: Lluna Aqua Hotel is the perfect choice.
