Gourmet Tour - Seaside Influences

Settle in for an immensely panoramic drive along La Coruña’s beautiful coastline and enjoy a seafood lunch at the restaurant of the hotel Melia Maria Pita, located between the main beaches of the city. Several of the city’s finest beaches rim Orzán Cove, and you may spot surfers there because the waves are often high. If you look at the peninsula directly across the cove, you will see the city aquarium and the Tower of Hercules, a still-operational lighthouse whose foundation dates to Roman times. The steep funicular-like railway that runs from the shore to the top of San Pedro Mountain is another landmark. As you might expect, the views of the Atlantic Ocean will be spectacular. Your lunch will be equally impressive as it will feature fresh, locally sourced seafood.
