Things to do in Playa Santiago

  1. La Cuevita

    Tucked into a natural cave beside the port, where plants dangle from the ceiling and low lighting creates a cosy atmosphere, La Cuevita serves fresh local seafood, such as tuna, vieja (parrot fish), lapas (limpets), chocos (cuttlefish), along with grilled meats, all served with papas arrugadas (wrinkly potatoes) and a tangy red mojo.

  2. Chinea Morales

    In Playa Santiago itself, splashing in the waves, rambling along the rocky shore and marvelling over the peaceful ocean view will likely take up most of your time. To get out on the water, you can hop on a cruise boat. Tour companies include Chinea Morales. Most trips include lunch and a swim.
