Puravida Bar Los Gigantes: guide, menu and reviews

Puravida Bar, also searched for as Pura Vida Bar Los Gigantes, is a small tapas and drinks bar on the front of Los Gigantes marina. Its outdoor tables face the boats and cliffs, making it suitable for breakfast or coffee, a stop after the beach, time before a boat trip or a late-afternoon drink.

Why Puravida Bar stands out

Its main distinction is a small, informal format in a very direct marina setting. It is not a large restaurant with an extensive menu or a big late-night venue. It works best for sharing cold tapas, trying Belgian beers, ordering a cocktail, having coffee or eating lightly while watching the harbour.

This listing has paid premium visibility, but practical details and the review summary remain separate from that commercial relationship. Ratings belong to their authors on Google and Tripadvisor; this portal summarises patterns to help visitors decide and links to the original profiles.

What you can eat and drink

Menu photographs and recurring review topics point to cold tapas and sharing plates. Guests frequently mention Serrano ham, cheese, anchovies, tomato bread, marinated fish, almogrote and mixed plates. Availability changes, so the guide does not assume every item is served every day.

Drinks are strongly associated with Belgian beers, mojitos and other cocktails. Wine, cava, coffee and soft drinks also appear in reviews. If you want hot cooking, a full meal or have an allergy, ask first: several reviewers describe a cold-tapas offer and a small business may adjust its selection to stock.

Menu, prices and budget

Google Maps showed typical spending of €1-10 per person, reported by 138 users and checked on 14 September 2026. It is a guide rather than an official tariff: the total depends on drinks, how many plates you order and whether you share. Tripadvisor also places the venue in its low-price category.

We do not reproduce individual prices from old menu photographs because they can become inaccurate. Check the menu displayed at the bar or the Menu section of Google Maps before ordering, particularly for cocktails, special beers and off-menu products.

Terrace, marina and views

The outdoor tables are in Poblado Marinero, opposite the berths and with the Los Gigantes cliffs behind them. The view is one of the most repeated themes in reviews. Mornings bring working-harbour activity and excursion departures; later in the day, the changing light becomes part of the visit.

The venue is compact and tables are limited. This guide cannot promise a particular table or a visible sunset throughout the year. Arrive with time or contact the bar if outdoor seating matters.

Google reviews: rating and recurring themes

The Puravida Bar Google Maps profile displayed 4.9 out of 5 from 283 reviews on 14 September 2026. Google's recurring topics included tapas, cocktails, Belgian beers, cliffs, mojitos, harbour, sunsets and almogrote.

The positive pattern particularly values personal service, prices for a tourist location, beer selection, tapas and the marina atmosphere. Scores and review counts change; open the linked profile for the latest figure, recent photographs and owner responses.

Tripadvisor and minority criticism

On Tripadvisor, it showed 4.5 out of 5 from 33 reviews. Positive comments overlap around fresh tapas, well-served drinks, views and friendly attention. A minority of reviews criticise the tone of service, available food or rules about consuming food and drink brought from elsewhere.

Both sides are included because an average cannot guarantee an individual experience. In a small bar, capacity, workload and stock may have more effect than in a large venue. Reviews are subjective and do not replace checking hours, menu or conditions.

Opening times and the best time to visit

Google and Tripadvisor publish Wednesday to Sunday, 9:00 to 21:00, closed Monday and Tuesday. This was checked on 14 September 2026. Holidays, leave or operational changes may alter opening, so check Google or Facebook on the day.

Morning suits coffee and a quiet stop, lunchtime suits light tapas and afternoon suits drinks with a harbour view. When visiting around an excursion, leave enough time to pay and reach the boarding point.

Getting there and parking

The address is Calle Poblado Marinero 5, 38683 Santiago del Teide, in the pedestrian marina area. It is a short walk from Playa de Los Guíos and the excursion piers. Streets down to the port are steep.

Marina parking is paid and may fill. Spaces higher in town involve walking on a gradient. Use our Los Gigantes parking guide and allow extra time at weekends or in high season.

Combining the visit

Puravida fits before or after a trip with Los Gigantes Blue, a marina walk or Playa de Los Guíos. Use our things to do in Los Gigantes and Los Gigantes bars guides to plan the rest of the day.
