Boga-Boga

San Vicente de la Barquera


One of San Vicente's most reliably good seafood spots, Boga-Boga has a clean-lined, predominantly white design and friendly, efficient service by black-shirted waiters. Try merluza al Boga-Boga (line-caught hake cooked in a clay pot with prawns) or a grilled sole, seabass or turbot.
