The Island Bar is a must if you like fantastic lively music, maybe some dancing too if it takes…read moreyour fancy. This relatively new bar which is just 3 minutes walk downhill from Biosfera Shopping Centre in Puerto del Carmen (tucked away at the side of da Vincie Italian restaurant) is home to the owner and powerful singer, Rory Gallagher....of "Jimmy's winning matches" fame! He packs the place out night after night with unbeatable music and fun, coming on stage around 9.45 and belts out song after song for 2 hours without pausing for breath literally! Brilliant modern music and songs...he's also joined on stage by an amazing Spanish musician, called Pedro, who plays a whole array of cord instruments, then after 12 pm they're joined by another equally brilliant musician for a rock nd roll session!
Like most of the music pubs in Puerto del Carmen, there's no cover charge, drink prices are fairly reasonable but closer to Irish pub prices really...I guess it's hard to quibble with that when such good entertainment is laid on.
