El Mirador de la Peña Restaurant

César Manrique built here an extraordinary viewpoint, like the rest of his works in the other islands; it blends with the surroundings and it is almost impossible to see it from a distance.

The restaurant is very good, with great views and very good local food. The viewpoint is 700 meters above sea level in a cliff called Tibataje; the Mirador de la Peña offers a panoramic view of the western coast of the island, completely volcanic.

Even thought the main reason that people come here is because of the views of Mirador de la Peña, made by César Manrique, the restaurant is a beautiful place and it has a great variety of local dishes.

From the Mirador de la Peña viewpoint, located 700 meters above sea level, you have beautiful views. It is located over the Tibataje cliff and it belongs to the Valverde municipality. It was constructed by the great artist César Manrique and faithful to his work, it is perfectly integrated with the landscape. The restaurant has spectacular views and the price of the menu is very reasonable. It also has menus for 12 Euros. I recommend the “Peto” (fish).

Located 700 meters above the Tibataje Cliff, in Guaracoa, the Mirador de la Peña offers amazing views of the western coast of the island and of all the valley of El Golfo, formed thousands of years ago by a cataclysm that included a great tsunami and a huge landslide.

The building was done by local artist César Manrique, and it blends with the surroundings, like in all of his work, perfectly adapting to the ground’s orography. It is surrounded by gardens, and inside it houses a prestigious restaurant (recommended by Michelin and Repsol guides).
