Virgen del Carmen 2015 Puerto de Tazacorte

The Holy Virgin of Carmen is in charge of all the people who live on the coast or by the sea. She is celebrated on 16 July with a procession that leads to the harbour, where she embarks on a boat – and is accompanied by other ships – out to sea, where she blesses the fishermen of Tazacorte.
