As you enter Arenales from GA it's at the far end of the second block of apartments on the sea side of the road. There is a small shop, closed in winter, just off the promenade; go through the little gateway and walk along the Alicante side of the block and the bar is right at the end closest to the sea. You have to walk around the end of the bar to get in as the door on the Alicante side is usually closed in winter due to the prevailing wind. 
The first block of apartments on the GA side blocks the sun from the terrace until about 2pm but then its full sun until it goes behind the apartments on the land side. In summer you need the awnings down but on the right day in winter it can be glorious.

A big thank you to Dave for a great find.  So cold round the other side of the bar and then 'surprise' full on sun - just chilling with some tapas. Salud x

Hi puddy woo,

Glad you liked it, it's been one of our watering holes for years, I thought everyone knew it was there but looking at it I suppose it's easy to overlook and pass by.

A lot less wind today and no clouds so John can get his shorts on again.

You obviously haven't ventured out today Dave, it's cold!!
The forecast for next week doesn't make pleasant reading

Yep Mr P-W made a big mistake there.  I was in shorts tho.  On a diff subject just went Eroski.  40% off a nice sun lounger and kitchen trolley. Very happy with my purchases
