CULTURE THOUGHTS

Dia di Rincon, what is it all about?

It is about celebrating our identity, our culture, our poetry, our art, our music, our origin, our culinary specialities, traditional dances, our history, our past, our present, our future, we honor our great grandparents, our grandparents, our parents, our kids and above all we give thanks and praise for the good, our blessings and we focused on our future! Why should we stop celebrating Dia di Rincon?!

MUST VISIT: PLAYAFRANS

''the abandoned fisher bay''

In the old days, Playafrans was the place to be to buy

fresh fish soup made with sea water and selfplanted picked herbs,

especially during local holidays and weekends.

It was normal for the people of Rincon (and area) to go there

and have a day on the beach with their family.

Today, unfortunately there is no activities anymore,

but it is definitely a must visit spot to enjoy the beauty of nature.
