The beach & setup
Chiringuito El Capricho presents itself as an upscale beachfront restaurant with panoramic views of the ocean. The dining area is glass-enclosed, offering a bright and open atmosphere. The cuisine focuses on fresh seafood, including grilled dishes and paella, served on well-presented tables with wooden furniture. The beach visible outside appears to be fine sand with a gradual water entry, suitable for ocean views but not showing typical beach club amenities.

We take prices from the beach club's own website, booking page or menu.
Checked by a person
We only show a price once we've seen it ourselves. No rumours, no estimates.

Each price shows when we last checked it, and we look again every season.
