    Luarca

    Posted by vross71 11 June 2012

    Luarca, on the Asturian coast in northern Spain, is a small fishing town of white houses and glass fronted 19th Century buildings, which wind their way up a steep valley, along a meandering river. There are fantastic seafood restaurants throughout the town, but those located around the harbour provide great views out across the fishing boats to the rugged coast beyond. August is the best time to visit when the weather is at its best and the summer festivals such as San Timoteo (St Timothy) are in full swing - sardines are handed out to visitors, freshly barbequed by fishermen, parades, fireworks and cider drinking go on into the early hours - a truly typical Asturian experience.
