Peña Flamenca La Perla

Top choice in Cádiz


Paint-peeled, sea-splashed La Perla, set romantically next to the crashing Atlantic surf in the Barrio de Santa María, hosts flamenco at 9.30pm most Fridays, more often in spring and summer, for an audience full of aficionados. An unforgettable experience.

Admission varies depending on the performance.
