Tour “the Harbour of Dreams” (in Spanish, el Puerto de los sueños): The history of Xàbia’s harbour dates back from centuries. This tour unveils long forgotten shipwrecks, men and women who lived from the sea, religious figures which travelled miles and miles stored in ship cellars, fantastic inventions that changed people’s lives and puzzling visitors who were charmed by the beauty of these coasts. But if there is something that really makes of this tour a different one, it is the possibility to discover all this magic from brought-to-present characters who tell us in person about the dreams of the sailors who had a link with this land and navigated these Mediterranean waters.
Tour “The Treasure of Xàbia” (in Spanish, El Tesoro de Xàbia): Three actors will bring historical, yet average characters back to life, while blending education with a dash of humour and real history.
The enactment will relate to real historical events, legends, anecdotes and relevant aspects of the everyday life of Xàbia in the past. Between acts, people will have the chance to enjoy the landscape and the rich architecture of Xàbia.
