The Sanlucar Tiger Prawn (Penaeus kerathurus) is a well-known gastronomic treasure of the Andalusian Atlantic coast. This species primarily breeds at the mouth of the Guadalquivir River. The Doñana National Park is located between the provinces of Huelva and Cádiz.

It is a crustacean from the same family as the prawn, and thus has a similar appearance. Its unmistakable feature is the colors that it displays on its body: whitish horizontal bands alternate with others of an almost reddish orange colour. Its normal size ranges from 8 to 16 cm, but it can grow to be as long as 25 cm.

But it's their nutrition that sets them apart from prawns from other fishing grounds, such as Tunisia or Morocco. Because of the distinct characteristics of the water in which it grows, it has a distinct diversity. An area is adjacent to the Doñana National Park is known for having one of the highest levels of biological diversity in Europe, if not the world.

All of this is supplemented by the most traditional and sustainable fishing gear. These characteristics give the Sanlucar Tiger Prawn a distinct flavour. A much stronger flavour than fish from other areas.
