Before, the residents of Es Canar and surroundings celebrated San Cristòfol (Saint Cristopher in the local language) with a mass service in the chapel and a paella lunch in the pine tree forest by the beach. That tradition is still alive and is also enjoyed by tourists on holiday in the area. If you’re staying at the Anfora Hotel it will be very easy for you to join the festivities, since all events take place less than a five-minute walk from the hotel.
How can you celebrate Saint Cristopher’s festivities?

- Enjoy the traditional horse cart parade at 12:45 AM.
