Spanish beach towns are mostly quiet in the winter. I have always associated silence with something poetic, but the extreme silence under the Coronavirus lockdown shattered that image.
I live in Torre de la Horadada on the southern end of Costa Blanca, Spain. Our town is dependent on tourism, so the silence is far from idyllic. The atmosphere is sad. There are almost no people outside.
By sharing these photos of our great little town, I hope to motivate everyone to support the few services that are still open in our neighborhoods.
