Sights & Activities
Beaches in Lívingston itself are disappointing, as buildings or vegetation come right down
to the water's edge in most places. Those beaches that do exist are often contaminated;
however, there are better beaches within a few kilometers to the northwest. You can reach
Playa Quehueche by taxi (Q20) in about 10 minutes: this beach near the mouth of the Río
Quehueche has been cleaned up by Exotic Travel. The best beach in the area is Playa Blanca
(admission Q10) , around 12km from Lívingston. This is privately owned and you need a boat
to get there.

Rasta Mesa
( 4459-6106; Barrio Nevago; 10am-2pm & 7-10pm) This is a friendly, informal little cultural
center where you can drop in for classes in Garífuna cooking (Q50 per person) and drum-
ming (Q100 per person) or just get a massage (Q150). They also offer volunteering oppor-
tunities.
