Every June 23rd, Málaga's beaches light up with bonfires and tradition for La Noche de San Juan. At midnight, people leap over flames, burn handwritten wishes, and dive into the sea to welcome good luck and the summer solstice.
It's a magical celebration where music, fire, and the Mediterranean spirit come together under the stars—an unforgettable night that blends ancient rituals with joyful festivity.
