Manduka Beach Club is a waterfront restaurant and bar in Las Negras, a small fishing village inside the Cabo de Gata natural park. It's a restaurant-first venue, with sunbeds, sea views, and a terrace that runs until 1am.
It's the main pick in our guide to beach clubs in Las Negras, which also covers where to stay.
The setting is the biggest draw. Outdoor tables face the water, the atmosphere skews casual and quiet, and the crowd is a mix of tourist groups and solo diners. Families are well catered for too, with a kids' menu and wheelchair-accessible access throughout.
It opens at 2pm on Monday, Saturday, and Sunday, and at 4:30pm Tuesday to Friday. Prices sit at €20-30 per person. Reservations are accepted, and there's free parking on the street and in a nearby lot.
Rated 3.9 from 446 reviews. Most guests are happy, but pricing draws complaints from a vocal minority. Service gets called out specifically when it's good, with individual staff praised by name.
