Nightlife
Viva Bar and Restaurant is right on the beach front of El Arenal, Los Nietos - right at the far end away from the crowded beaches. They offer an excellent lunch menu with surfers in mind, 4,95 for a baguette, can of fizzy drink or beer and a pack of crisps! They also have a great daytime menu and evening menu with live music every weekend (summer months) The owners are kitesurfer friendly (just don't walk in with wet sandy feet!).
