Celebrations on the Eve of St John the Baptist's Day, which included the 3rd annual FotoSub Gran Canaria Costa Mogan underwater photography competition. Live music, a bonfire, roasting corn and pineapples, fire-eaters, jugglers on stilts and flag and fish-wavers all added to the atmosphere. For many it is traditional to immerse themselves in the sea on this night - for the kids, just another excuse to play in the water! Earlier on in the evening there were bonfires dotted all around the valley - another tradition, which is repeated on the St. Peter's Eve a few days later.
