AMURA TAKES ITS NAME FROM A NAUTICAL TERM THAT SIGNIFIES
FORWARD MOMENTUM, DIRECTION, AND PURPOSE.
In Spanish sailing, “amura” refers to the bow of a boat, the part that first cuts through
the waves. This is a fitting metaphor for our approach to dining.
Amura is a heartfelt tribute to Spain’s fishing heritage, blending the rich culinary
traditions of the Iberian Peninsula with subtle South African influences.
Inspired by the seafood taverns of southern Spain, Amura celebrates Andalusia’s
original tapas culture. Guided by Michelin-starred Chef Ángel León.
Enjoy a genuine culinary experience that honours the spirit of Spain
while embracing the flavours of South Africa
