Temple with a rectangular floor plan and a semi-circular apse. On the outside we can see the coats of arms of the Peña and Correa families, being the captain Álvaro Correa the one who ordered its construction in 1596. The church was rebuilt in 1697 by Manuel Troncoso de Ojea and his sister Isabel (inside the building you can see a medallion that makes a reference to this fact). The temple is one of the attractive features of the old seafaring village because of, aside its architecture, its location in front of the sea and its calvary, believed to mark the origin of the village.
