Our Lady of Mount Carmel Day, also known as La Virgen del Carmen Day, honors the Virgin Mary. According to Carmelite tradition, Mary appeared to Saint Simon Stock and gave him a scapular, which became associated with devotion to Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This feast is particularly important to maritime communities where the Virgin del Carmen is seen as the protector of sailors. Celebrations include sea and land processions, special church services, and community events, emphasizing her role as a guardian and spiritual intercessor.
