North Coast
On Isla Hueso de Ballena, Restaurante Hueso de Ballena is pretty ideal, right on the sand with a few hammocks and aquatic inflatables to keep young travelers amused. It promises an ‘orgy of shellfish’ and is a good place to try the local specialty, conchas negras (black shells) as well as ceviche, seafood rices, chicharrónes and soups, with ingredients plucked fresh from the water.
Boats will take you out from Puerto Pizzaro and back for S25.
