Kiosko El Tiburón

A summer fantasy from Andalucía

Welcome to Kiosko El Tiburón, a nostalgic seaside stand inspired by traditional Spanish kioskos and the old inland finca houses of Andalucía. With its curved rooftop details and classic façade, this illustrated beach kiosk blends vintage Spanish architecture with playful fantasy storytelling. Soft pastel colors and warm gradients reflect the glowing summer light you can see along the Costa del Sol, where sunsets melt into peach, coral, turquoise, and cotton-candy skies.

In Spain, a beach kiosko is where you normally stop for ice cream, cold refreshments, beach toys, sweets and crisps. It is part of summer culture, a small but joyful place filled with color and life. But this version of Kiosko El Tiburón is different. Alongside ice cream and balloons, this illustrated kiosko sells something far more magical: handmade fantasy sea creatures imagined and designed by myself (Ingrid).

The name El Tiburón, meaning The Shark, is inspired by the iconic summer song 'El Tiburón' by Projecto Uno. That playful, rhythmic energy flows into the artwork, giving the kiosk a vibrant, nostalgic, and slightly surreal mood.

Inside this dreamy kiosk illustration, you will find Chico the shark balancing proudly on his surfboard , a cheerful crab perched on a inflatable beach ball, and an angry seagoat guarding the kiosk with dramatic flair. A tiny blue dolphin, a pink seahorse with wings and a tiny heart tattoo and a mermaid with purple horns. Red coral grows like decorative lace around the counter and let's not forget the ice cream sign.
