Grace's Cool Spot

Little Corn Island


This rocking backpacker haunt devoted to Bob Marley is the most lively of the budget places on Cocal Beach. The basic but brightly painted cabañas are a little rough and vary in quality, with some getting far more breeze, so have a look around. The rooms with shared bathrooms are cheaper but not very spacious.

Fortunately the onsite bar-restaurant is a fine place to hang out, as are the little waterside huts and hammocks. Management organizes its own snorkeling trips for US$20.
