I heard/read somewhere that a new tiki bar by the same owner of Hawaika is going to or is already open in Valencia... Ask Mister Naufrago... Right now, Valencia is kind of far away from me, and I don't want to report on this new place until my physical being gets a drink, sitting there. I think it's only fair for my readers that I stay true to my "New Journalism" Gonzo style of urban archaeological reporting.
How did you win that price?! Cool! Valencia is REALLY something. Not overblown touristic hype like Barcelona, not too rough like Madrid. Valencia is probably the best City in Spain all and all. There is a HUGE surf music scene. A big student population with lots of arts, comics and underground stuff going on. Graffiti, great museums, the most beautiful women (guys are ugly)... I am not exaggerating.
Visit Oceanografic... The building looks like an enormous sea shell. Built by Felix Candela, a Valenciano who lived and worked for decades in Mexico. I am a fan of his work.
For how long are you staying?
