Pikante is a sex shop on Rúa Fernando Macías, one street back from Riazor beach, and it is the cabins at the back rather than the shelves at the front that put it in this guide.
The shop itself is a plain erotic retailer, part of a chain with branches across Spain, and it is large: several thousand items, toys, lingerie, bondage gear, cosmetics. Nothing about it is coy.
Behind the shop floor are video cabins with a wide channel selection, several of them interconnected and fitted with glory holes. The operator has announced a full cruising area to go with them, with bed cabins, unlit spaces and a sling room. Until that opens, the cabins are what there is.
It is not a gay venue in the strict sense. It is a shop that a lot of men use as one, and in a city with no cruising club it is the only indoor option.
