This is where you will find most of the bars and restaurants in Torrox. The two that we favour are, Bar Aries very reasonable prices with friendly service, they do a very good paella but do need 40 minutes notice. We also very much favour La Casa restaurant English run with very good food at middle prices, well worth a visit.

This is a restaurant you will not forget. There is rustic local food from the mountains such as Venison, Wild Boar, Rabbit and other game and also more conventional Spanish food. Famous for their home made bread. The views from here are breathtaking as is the rugged trip getting here. You need to book. If you don't want to eat just go for a drink.

Entertainment & Activities
La Herradura is considered amongst the three best diving destinations in Spain, but it is also known in the international diving world because of its great variety of sea slugs (nudibranchs) which are marine snails without shells with beautiful colours. La Herradura is one of the ten best places in the world to find them. Many underwater photographers love them and for this reason it is no surprise that the village hosts various underwater photography championships this year. Last June the Andalusia submarine photography championship took place in La Herradura, and in October the village welcomes the European and the National championships of underwater video and photography.
