Good Friday

Good Friday is celebrated with humility and respect. The procession of Epitaphs meets in the port. The lights go out and fires are lit on the embrasures of the castle offering a spectacular sight. Church hymns are sung while the Epitaphs pass followed by believers to re-split later in order to return to their parishes.
