Afternoons are for the pool—a communal, clothing-optional pool where you play water polo, read a novel, or doze on a lounger. Evenings bring paseo , the traditional Spanish stroll, only here it’s a parade of sun-bronzed retirees walking their dogs, stopping to chat, the only accessories being hats, sunglasses, and perhaps a fanny pack worn low on the hip.
