Restaurant Canalina

Southern Morocco & Western Sahara


The Canalina, when it's open, is likely the best restaurant in town, featuring seafood, tortillas and other Iberian fare. Unfortunately, hours are irregular.

The Canalina also rents out spacious mini-apartments, all with compact kitchens, which make a good accommodation solution if you're in town for a few days.
