The Reserve is also home to many predatory birds such as the sparrow hawk, raven, eagle and the common hawk.  There are also small owls, canaries, Moorish partridges, robins, single-coloured swifts, hoopees and turtledoves.

Small cocktail bar close to the Gran Tinerfe Hotel in Costa Adeje.

It is rated very high on TripAdvisor, no 1 out of 173 restaurants and bars in the Costa Adeje area infact. One reviewer claims that the cocktails are the best in Tenerife.

The bar has a laid back atmosphere and a large cocktail menu including some good beers.  The best bit is the cost of the cocktails, most of them only cost 3 euros each! The music is also great, authentic Spanish merengue salsa music.

On the minus side, the bar does get busy as it is so popular and as it is also small it can be difficult to get a table during the busiest hours. But it is worth hanging around for a table.

The other minus is the bar is only open from Monday to Friday (closed over the weekend). What a shame!  The opening hours however are from 6pm until 2 in the morning.

There is outdoor seating available and free wifi is also available.

But bring cash as they don’t accept cards.
