As the sun sets on the eve of 23rd June, the coastline of Málaga transforms into a stage of fire, music and heartfelt wishes.
The Night of San Juan is far more than a celebration; it is an ancient ritual where fears are cast into the flames and the arrival of summer is honoured beneath the stars.
Across Málagas beaches, bonfires rise as symbols of renewal. Friends and families gather by the sea, sharing laughter, food and glasses of chilled wine while music drifts through the warm night air. Some leap over the flames three times to attract good fortune; others write their wishes on paper and let them burn, trusting the wind and sea to carry them to a new destiny.
This year, La Zambra Resort invites you to experience this time-honoured tradition with a distinctive twist of elegance and Andalusian spirit.
