LAS REJAS - Bolonia

Just a few minutes' drive from El Aguilon, this superb family run fish restaurant is a firm favourite. No view but makes no difference if you go in the evening.

Try the croquetas de choco and the almejas.

Campero, (Cortijo El Aguilon, Luxury Beach Villa Tarifa)

EL CAMPERO

Without a doubt, the best fish restaurant in the area, El Campero combines tradition and modernity. An unexpected location in an urbanization, but people drive for miles around to El Campero where bluefin tuna is the star! A little pricey but 100% worth a visit during your stay.

SERENADE

Scruffy little beach bar at the far left end of Bolonia. The windsurfers go onto the beach from here, so there's a fun atmosphere. Food is the usual beach bar fare and music can be rather loud, but great place to watch the action and still one of our favourites.

TUMBAO

Tarifa is home to the famous TUMBAO beach bar. Mojitos, music, and models. In the afternoons it's very relaxed; you can enjoy an afternoon reading a book whilst sipping a delicious mojito. In the early evening they turn up the volume.

WAVES

Tucked behind the dunes, this scruffy little beach bar is well off the beaten-track so not many people know about it. Fun spot for a bite to eat at lunchtime, and good cocktails. Sit in a deckchair and enjoy the view across to Morocco.

Meat Restauran

VENTORILLO EL NENE​     ·   closed on Tues & Wed  ·

The best meat restaurant in the area. Hearty Andalusian cuisine and great steak in a cosy setting. El Nene, with its extensive meat menu, barbecue, excellent tapas and very reasonable prices is a winner! Family owned, they raise all of their own meat and grow their own vegetables. Perfect place to drop in for some tapas close to home. Open 9am - midnight

*Recommend: Carillada, Rabo de Toro, Pinchito de Cordero
