Nestled in the heart of the iconic Cartagena port, Yemanjá specialises in modern tapas with a twist
Named after the Brazilian goddess of the sea, Café bar Yemanjá is located in the port of Cabo de Palos, a lively enclave with plenty of atmosphere and packed full of leisure activities, diving schools and shops.The lifelong dream of Magdalena, who is originally from Argentina, the bar aims to offer a refuge from the hustle and bustle of the marina, a relaxing hideaway where customers can try a range of tasty tapas and a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan delicacies.
During the summer, Café bar Yemanjá is a vibrant hub of activity, with great music, and a chilled, mixed clientele of all nationalities.If you dont like a certain ingredient you can just ask and the menu can be adapted to suit individual tastes.
