Roc de Sant Gaieta

 
The construction on this Mediterranean-style fishing village started in 1964 and was completed in 1972.
The initial idea was to build a village for fisherman on the rocks. Apartments were built on the seafront, designed in the style of the Ibizan and Mediterranean fishing villages.
In the village they built courtyards in the styles of Granada, Seville and Andalusia, complemented by Romanesque, Arabic and Gothic-style construction and ornamentations, as well as styles typical of various parts of Spain.
Consequently it took shape as a 'typical village', popularly known as 'Spanish Village'.




 


 

 

 

 
We had a great time exploring the village. Not sure it was because it was Siesta time or if it's because it's only spring, but the little town was deserted.
It was so beautiful!!
After exploring the village, the boys went down to the beach.



 


 

 

 

 
After a quick play Matt and Ryan drove back to our place. Alex and myself chose to walk back along the coast on the Ronda Path all the way back to our camp ground.
