Local Tips

Bring cash, as ATMs are scarce and mobile coverage can be spotty. Most local restaurants are cash-only and shut early in the evening.

Cultural Etiquette

Hidden Gems

Explore the estuaries for dolphin sightings, visit Playa Chaparrales for solitude, and join a dawn boat tour with local fishermen.
