Casa Museo de Unamuno
About the only sight, as such, is the modest Casa Museo de Unamuno . The philosopher Miguel de Unamuno, exiled for his opposition to the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, stayed here in 1924. He later escaped to France before returning to his position at Salamanca University when the Republicans came to power in 1931.
The ground-floor house has been turned into a period piece, with four rooms furnished from Unamuno's day, including the bedroom (complete with potty!) and his study with original desk. You'll get a warm smile at the entrance, but if you're after information in anything other than Spanish, you're short on luck.

La Manduka
Think of stepping into an Andy Warhol painting when you eat here. The dining rooms are all intense colours, large abstract paintings and dazzling tableware. Thankfully, the food rises to the challenge with an innovative menu that includes dishes like solomillo de Ibérico con salsa de dátiles y sabrosa jardinera al sesámo (fillet steak with a date sauce and fresh vegetables with sesame).

El Cangrejo Colorao
There's a pleasing old-fashioned elegance about this seafront restaurant with its bow-tied, white-tablecloth ambience. The menu is only in Spanish - always a good sign - and includes cazuela de champiñones y jamon (meat stew with mushrooms and ham) and mejillones rellenos de cordero (mussels filled with lamb). There is a menú del día (set menu).

Mercado
Eating out in Puerto del Rosario can be rewarding, with some good choices and modest prices. The Mercado is a good place to pick up a wheel of queso artesanal de cabra (organic goat's cheese), costing around €9 a kilo.

Camelot
This bar has a medieval theme and a bank of music-video screens mixed in with DJs and disco. You can catch live music performances here, too, although the quality can be patchy.

Mesón Las Brasas
A family-friendly place, serving a fair range of unpretentious and tasty fish and meat dishes. The menú del día (set menu) is a bargain.

Coyote
Right next door to Camelot, this is an enticing little spot with a good list of cocktails, some live music and a boisterous weekend crowd post-midnight.
