Feliz July

Hi Reader

Turn Up the Music, Turn Down the Heat (Please, Weather Gods 🙏)

Whew—June brought the heat, and not the metaphorical kind. We’re hoping July chills out just a tad, because things are already heating up in the best way: festival season is here, and the Costa de la Luz is ready to dance.

This is the month to soak up the sounds of summer—from the big-name acts hitting stages across Sancti Petri, El Puerto, and Cádiz, to the local bands and DJ sets rocking your favorite chiringuitos. Seriously, never underestimate a beach bar with a speaker system. Whether you stumble into a reggae night, a flamenco fusion set, or some wild 80s revival party on the sand—it’s all part of the summer magic.

🍸 As for us? We’re keeping your glass full and your calendar packed.

  • Every Friday: Head to The Company Room for Cocktail Tasting Fridays—bold sips, fresh flavors, good company. July 4: Our 4th of July Speakeasy Celebration brings the fireworks—minus the cleanup.
  • July 10: Summer Wine Trivia at Molly´s returns, because nothing pairs with summer like a chilled glass of something delicious.

Starting July 18th, we’ll be on holiday until September 3rd—recharging, road-tripping, and probably dancing at a few too many festivals ourselves. That said, if you have any questions, need local tips, or just want a solid restaurant reco, don’t hesitate to hit us up. We’re still around and always happy to help. And hey—keep an eye out for our updates while we’re off adventuring. You never know what surprises we might have in store. 😉🌞

Don’t miss the next yoga class with @maca_yoga! Watch the highlights from the last one.
