Fiestas de Otivar – Inmaculada Concepción (6-9 December)
At the beginning of December each year we can look forward to the Fiestas de Otivar, in honor of the Inmaculada Concepción (Immaculate Conception)! This beautiful pueblo blanco is perched in the hills about 20 minutes outside of Almuñécar. The village comes alive for 3 days and nights, with events, music, lights, food and fun.
