We recommend arranging a local boat tour directly from nearby Puntarenas or a smaller fishing village, which your hosts at Cabinas Lunas de Abril can readily assist with.

While Cabinas Lunas de Abril offers a simple breakfast, we strongly encourage exploring the local "sodas" in nearby towns for authentic Costa Rican cuisine.
