Live the tradition and seafaring festival in this spring event. Declared a Festival of National Tourist Interest

The Folía festival, which is celebrated in the Cantabrian town of San Vicente de la Barquera, consists of walking the Virgin through the sea accompanied by sea songs, with their sounds and dances. According to tradition, it was an Easter Tuesday, when the “Virgen de la Barquera” arrived at the port, so called because she arrived in a boat without oars, rudder, or any crew member. La Folía commemorates this appearance.
