Santa Lucia – La Saladilla

We leave again from the Church and walk 4 km in 1 ¼ hours on an old track to arrive again at an intermediate area of La Muela.

By car we can arrange tours to other areas, visiting the close by villages of Vejer, Barbate, Conil and sampling local foods and walking on beautiful uncrowded beaches. Inland there are many villages of interest such as Medina Sidonia or Benalup where you will find other attractive sights and enjoy foods of the area.

Locally, the Fiestas of Santa Lucia are very special with all the villagers taking part. The most important celebration is 13 th December, the “Day of Santa Lucia” where traditionally a local pig is cooked in a variety of ways and served tapa style during the day. There are games and attractions during the weekend for all ages. Everyone contributes and enjoys the occasion. Visitors are made very welcome.

Santa Lucía desde lo alto

The village is very Spanish where day to day traditional Spanish life continues alongside the arrival of the tourist who seeks the peace and quiet of the countryside. There are two excellent restaurants, very well known in the area for the quality of their fish and meat, a traditional “venta” (small bar) and a camping site tucked away at the top of the village, which is open all yeare.
