ℹ️ La Escollera gets very busy and they don’t accept reservations so make sure you arrive early. Whilst you’re waiting for a table you can get a drink and a tapas the wait is quite a pleasant experience.

🌧️ There is lots of inside space at La Escollera so it’s a good place for coffee, breakfast or lunch when it’s raining.

Editors Comment

La Escollera is part of Estepona history and culture. Legend has it that the restaurant started with a small fire and a bucket of fish and as the fishermen would return to the port it was freshly prepared and cooked right off the boat.

Today, it’s a popular place to get fresh fish and seafood. Every time I’ve visited, I’ve enjoyed the experience, and the food has been excellent.

It does get very busy, and you can’t book, however, you can get a tapas and drink while you wait.

A great experience for seafood lovers.

What we like

  • Delicious, fresh seafood
  • Unpretentious and authentic
  • Tapas and drinks whilst you wait
  • Vibrant atmosphere
  • Good service despite being very busy

What we don’t like

  • Very busy most of the time, so no good if you have limited time
