A whitewashed church overlooks a cluster of bars, shops and restaurants that spreads out onto agricultural landscapes, home to sheep, goats and cows. A welcome retreat for artists, sculptures and musicians that have chosen to settle in Santa Gertrudis, the whole area has a very Bohemian feel, with art and sculptures dotted around for you to appreciate.

New villas and revamped streets are giving Santa Gertrudis a more modern feel, and even the old square has been made over recently. This mix of old and new works well, and has given rise to a new wave of trendy looking bars and eateries waiting to be discovered.
