Los Muertos Beach, in the early years

Since 1959

The History of El Dorado on Los Muertos Beach

El Dorado was opened in 1959 by the Wulff family on Los Muertos Beach. For years it was where jet setters and Hollywood actors spent their afternoons, sipping Pacificos and margaritas on the sand.

Since 2016 Grupo La Palapa has run it as an all-day beachfront restaurant: the same beach, the same view, and the menu El Dorado is known for.

Excellent restaurant on the beach with phenomenal service and very friendly staff. The price of the food is very reasonable, both breakfast and lunch!

“Delicious dinner on the beach”

The view on the beach during the sunset as I ate dinner was absolutely stunning… I’ll definitely be returning next time I’m in PV!
