(MO) Situated across from the picturesque El Peñon (the rocky point which divides the two beaches in Salobreña), you will find Chringuito La Bahia. Here you can feast on a spectacular menu while enjoying the breathtaking view of the sea and beaches. La Bahia has an amazing assortment of fresh fish to choose from daily – look for the day catch displayed, chilling on ice, in the quaint little boat inside the restaurant.
The owner, Pepe Almendros, has run this restaurant since it opened in 1988. The length of its very existence speaks volumes about its impeccable food and attentive, friendly staff. The special preparation of their fish and meat is what makes this restaurant stand out from the rest. Especially popular is their succulent roasted meat, or ribs if you prefer, served with a special sauce. Also popular is their wide assortment of salads (8 classes of salad!). Soon you will also be able to enjoy the sight of sardines being roasted on a spit in the boat parked outside the chiringuito.
A unique feature of La Bahia is the conical shaped roof and the crystal glass doors, which create a very illuminated setting. These features keep the place warm in the winter (along with the wood-burning oven) – and cool in the summer, when the doors are opened to allow a nice light breeze to flow through. The restaurant is spacious but cozy and with indoor and outdoor seating, there is room for up to 250 people. However, in the high season it is recommended to reserve a table. They are open every day now until October between the hours of 10:00 and 22:30. They have ample private parking reserved for their guests. English is spoken.
