Gastronomy and services
in Atlanterra and Zahara de los Atunes
Zahara de los Atunes, a town that has lived from fishing for centuries, is located 4Km from the Atlanterra Urbanisation. Its name comes from the tuna that has been fished in these waters since the time of the Phoenicians.
They used an ancient fishing technique known as Almadraba, which is still used today.
You can’t leave without trying the red tuna from almadraba and the veal retinta.
In a small town like Zahara, it is surprising to find a large number of restaurants of a high gastronomic level that delight us not only with fresh fish from the Atlantic Ocean and a wide variety of tuna specialities, but also with the local beef, native to the area.
In their kitchens you will find a balance between innovation and the tradition of a seafaring town.
Proof of Zahara’s gastronomic boom and the recognition of a knowledgeable public are the well-known Tuna Gastronomic Routes and Retinto Gastronomic Routes, where innovation, the quality of the raw material and haute cuisine go hand in hand.
