El Rompido. Society and culture
With a total area of 226 square kilometres, the municipality of Cartaya
and El Rompido sits at 35km from the capital. Its average altitude of
26m above sea level reduces to zero at El Rompido itself.
That’s El Rompido, a village of fishermen that has one pharmacy,
two supermarkets, one tobacconist, one baker, one haberdasher,
one hairdresser, and that’s (almost) it – with of course a
great many restaurants where you can enjoy the two great
regional dishes, pescaito frito (fried
mixed fish) and ‘los calamares del campo’
(fried onion and green pepper).
El Rompido has a fast connection to Cartaya by main road, a road surrounded
by vast pine forests that make the whole area glow green
and evoke times that these great trees no longer remember.
