El Cotillo bars are located in different parts of the village. One thing is for sure, when it comes to the El Cotillo nightlife, you won’t find noisy night clubs and bars in El Cotillo. Having said that, some of the bars do have live music some evenings but it is usually good acoustic music, not loud heavy rock.
In fact El Cotillo seems to attract many talented musicians on holiday themselves who often end up giving impromptu performances.
There are chilled bars too where you can sit and enjoy a drink or two, perhaps while watching the sun go down after a day on the beach.
All of the bars sell food so you could also class them as restaurants too in many cases.
If you really need one you can get an “English Breakfast” at a few of the El Cotillo bars, such as the Seahorse or El Toston.
The only beach bar is Torino’s on Playa de la Concha. See the beaches page.

Chupa Cabra
It was originally the Toston Bar but now reopened as the Chupa Cabra.

Bar Acorralado
This is a small bar on the corner of the little square, just off the main street.
It does some very good Tapas deals (5 tapas dishes, bread and a bottle of wine for 18€ the last time I looked.) It can be quite lively on Spanish football night which I think is Sundays.

A small bar located at the top of the High Street.
It can’t be missed with the huge lips painted on the outside.

I have been holidaying in Fuerteventura for over 30 years and first came to El Cotillo 23 years ago. I owned an apartment in El Cotillo for 10 years and now live with my wife, Sue, and dog, Jenson, just 5 miles away. El Cotillo is my favourite place in Fuerteventura.
