Food scene
Not for the faint-hearted, but if neon lights, plastic tables, and ordering straight from the fish counter with no menu (in Spanish), sounds like your perfect meal, then Amigo Camilo will reward you with a delicious seafood meal for two for an incredibly good value price! Book well in advance!

In the old town of Vegueta this is the larger of the markets, with less of a focus on bars and more stalls.

There are a few good restaurants on this pretty pedestrianised street and this is our favourite.

It's hard to have a bad meal on Las Canteras seafront, but frankly a lot of the restaurants let the view do the heavy lifting. Toma Pan Y Moja, however, has an excellent selection of dishes including a superb fresh tuna steak.

MAZU
Excellent natural wines! And a fresh Mexican menu.
La Bulla Bar de Tapas Andaluz
Extremely close to the apartment, and very fine food.
Down the rugged end of the beach, this spot is deceptively fancy and the service is excellent.

Best at night, as there’s no view, but the food is top notch. Try the volcanic rocks of hake!

Many people place Las Canteras up there with the Copacabana in the top city beaches in the world. You'll find it just a few hundred metres from the apartment.

Both the view from the beach below, and from walking on the clifftop forests, is spectacular.
