A Coruna Holidays

A Coruna is the original home of one of the best-loved high-street brands – the very first Zara store was opened here. You’ll find it on Rúa Juan Flórez, alongside plenty of other popular shops. A 10-minute drive out of town, meanwhile, takes you to Marineda City mall, where there’s another 200-plus shops and a load of restaurants.

Lively nights out are A Coruna’s bread and butter. The city’s venues often host concerts and live music venues, while DJs spin tracks from every genre in nightclubs all around town. The real hotspot, though, is La Marina – its cocktail bars overlook the ocean and you can party all night under the stars.

You may have tried a Spanish tortilla before, but A Coruna has a style all of its own. After the sliced potatoes are fried and mixed with eggs, the omelette is lightly cooked in a hot skillet until only the outside has firmed up. This leaves a gooey, runny centre that oozes out when you cut into it.
