Garlic shrimp, seafood pasta, or fresh grilled fish of the day come accompanied by crash-
ing waves and sparkling blue Caribbean vistas at this sweet spot owned by a lively Tico-
Italian couple. Cahuita's top option for romantic waterfront dining, it's only a 400m walk
northwest of Cahuita, on the road to Playa Negra. Save room for the delicious tiramisù .

Drinking & Nightlife

Low-key Cahuita is home to one insanely loud drinking hole: Coco's Bar ( MAP
GOOGLE MAP ; noon-last man standing) . You can't miss it at the main intersection, painted
Rasta red, gold and green and cranking the reggaetón up to 11. On some nights (usually on
weekends) there's also live music. Across the street you'll find a couple more bars, includ-
ing Riki's ( MAP GOOGLE MAP ) and Splash ( MAP GOOGLE MAP ) , the latter with its own
swimming pool.
