Semana Santa

The Holy Week of Easter is the most important Catholic religious festival in South America. Semana Santa, Holy Week, celebrates the last days of Christ's life, the Crucifixion and Resurrection, as well as the end of Lent. Semana Santa is observed with a range of celebrations, from the most solemnly religious, to a mix of pagan/Catholic, to commercial. This is a happening place those two weeks. The city is full with people from every part of the world. The beaches are full of folks just thawing out ready for spring to roll in. It is also a great opportunity to explore this amazing culture up close and personal.
