They never know what happens “mañana” (by the way, this is the most favorite world of Spanish people that tourists will hear many times during their travel in Isla Canela), in other words, tomorrow.

Locals are true masters when it comes to having fun. Numerous colorful festivals that regularly take place in the region are another proof of that fact. For example, Ayamonte, a town not far from Isla Canela, hosts a colorful carnival that has much in common with the carnival in Brazil. This is one of the largest events in the province of Huelva that always attracts hundreds of tourists who come to see Comparsas (masquerades) and listen to Chirigota (folk satirical songs).

Catholic holidays are also widely celebrated in the region. Many of them have interesting peculiarities. For instance, Corpus Christi is impossible to imagine without group singing, fair trade with local delicacies and wine, and dancing performances (of course, flamenco is the major dance). As a rule, the holiday falls to the end of May, and the event is an open-air one because the weather is usually fine at this time of the year. The night between June 23 and 24 is the time for Fiesta de San Juan. During this event, visitors can participate in an exciting event – local people make fires on the beaches in order to lay spirits.
