Puerto de Mazarrón lived on Sunday a huge homage to the Virgin of Carmen, patron saint of fishermen.
The meeting began at the Fish Market with a Holy Mass officiated by Abel Rosa, parish priest of the church of San José, attended by the civil and military authorities, including the mayor of Mazarrón, Alicia Jiménez and the director general of Ports, José Ramón Díez de Revenga.
At the end of the religious services, a plaque was delivered to local fisherman Manuel Ballesta García as a tribute to his dedication and work at sea over the years.
Then began the traditional procession by the waters of the Bay of Mazarron.
"Los Alonsos" was the ship that had the honor this year of carrying the image of the Virgin of the Carmen.
During the sea route, accompanied by numerous boats, the floral offering was made in memory of those who lost their lives at sea.
On returning to port, the patron saint of fishermen was carried on the shoulders in procession to the church of San José with a stop at the seafront at the height of the Fishermen's Guild.
