The seafood-tastic menu showcases what's been caught each day at cheerful family-owned El Amanecer, an unpretentious local favourite with a sea-view terrace, blue-and-white decor and sensible prices. Tuck into homemade tortilla, seafood stew, salted Padrón peppers or fried cheese with marmalade, along with grilled fish of the day. No reservations, so arrive early.
