The
Community of 'Ea' |
The young Basque fisherman, Joan de Ea, whose Will was written
on the 7th of June, 1632, actually came from the town of Ea, that
lies between Lequeitio and Elanchove. Ea is a small riverport
which has a little museum showing some of the linkages between
Old Ferrole (Plum Point) and the Basque country.
