Espetos (fish grilled on skewers), caldero (the local fish and rice stew) and sunset on Playa de los Alemanes

Maloca is a Mediterranean restaurant at Playa de los Alemanes, number 57, at km 1 of La Manga, on the shore of the Mar Menor. It operates as a beach club, and sunset is its main draw: it appears in almost two hundred reviews, more than any dish on the menu.

Espetos (fish grilled on skewers) and charcoal grilling

Espeto (fish grilled on a skewer) is the speciality mentioned most often, followed by Mar Menor caldero (the local fish and rice stew) and arroz a banda (rice cooked in fish stock). Bluefin tuna and bone marrow also come from the grill, and pavlova is the favourite dessert.
