Jazz in Spain
Jazz in Spain The Panama Jazz Band (6 days)
This region is a stunningly scenic part of Green Spain and is known locally as “Little Switzerland by the Sea”. Rolling meadows, orchards, wooded reservations, criss crossed by streams and rivers. Looming behind the coast is the Cantabrican Cordillera on which sits the Picos de Europa range. The first sighting of Europe for the returning Spanish explorers of years gone by .
All along the coast are rugged outcrops or little rivers coming down from the mountains dividing the golden beaches. Our destination is Mogro which is essentially a holiday resort. Situated on a vast sandy beach at the confluence of the Pas River and the Atlantic.
We’ll be staying at the excellent, modern 4* Hotel Milagros Golf which is literally about 12 paces from that beach . Spacious rooms, an indoor heated pool, Jacuzzi, gym, Turkish Bath, Putting green, boutique and sun lounge will enhance your stay .
