Marbella is especially known for its fresh seafood, and there is a wide selection of restaurants serving delicate shellfish dishes. If you want to enjoy a tasty meal while enjoying the sea view, we recommend visiting one of the many small authentic beach restaurants in the area, known as Chiringuitos. Here, fresh fish and shellfish are prepared right by the beach. We recommend trying some of the local specialties such as gambas al ajillo or fried squid.

For a flavorful variety, tapas are the perfect option. Tapas are part of Spanish food culture and give you the opportunity to try different flavors on the same plate. We recommend "El Tapeo de Cervantes", "Bodegas La Venencia", and "Casa Tua". Try some of the classic tapas dishes like patatas bravas, tortilla, and chorizo combined with a cold beer or a refreshing glass of sangria.
