El Rocio

El Rocio is a village in Huelva Province in Andalucia. This village has three unusual characteristics: its annual pilgrimage or rosario that takes place at Pentecost; its stunning position at the very edge of a large expanse of water (which is puny in the hottest part of summer) where there are many species of waterfowl together with marsh mares and cattle wading through the shallow water; and its streets covered in sand (replenished nightly).

About El Rocio

El Rocio is a village in Huelva Province in Andalucia. This village has three unusual characteristics: its annual pilgrimage or rosario that takes place at Pentecost; its stunning position at the very edge of a large expanse of water (which is puny in the hottest part of summer) where there are many species of waterfowl together with marsh mares and cattle wading through the shallow water; and its streets covered in sand (replenished nightly). El Rocío has the aspect of a wild-west town, where the hoof-prints of horses seem more in keeping than the tyre marks. The village is on the edge of Doñana National Park and makes an excellent base for accommodation.
