Day Trip to Los Vivos Beachfront
Are you looking for a low key, relaxing experience for a whole family with a bit of adventure added in? Look no further, Los Vivos is all of that plus an amazing experience with culinary fair crafted from all-organic ingredients grown by the family who owns it. If you would like to learn more about this location, family and the experience, I highly recommend visiting their website here - it is truly an inspiring story.
The organic farm that provides ingredients for the onsite restaurant (open from 10:00am-9:00pm daily) also provides the produce to other families in town through Santa Teresa Farmers Market and other locations- it is the large stand with fruits and vegetables that is always at the Saturday’s Farmers Market!
Los Vivos resembles an island as it is only accessible through sea/boat which makes it a really fun experience for the whole family It is a perfect place to get away, escape the crowds, enjoy nature and relax. The location offers peaceful white sand beaches, clear water, idyllic views, beautiful fauna and flora, on-site activities and lodging, delicious food and kids corner with a handmade outdoor kitchen, tepee and sand toys! The food and drinks were amazing, especially the patacones and freshly made drinks, so make sure to try them!
There are several ways to get to Los Vivos- you can book a local boat tour that will take you directly there, or you can drive to Tambor or Pochote (park at the Camping Don Trino, 2000c) and then book/catch a small boat (for about 3,000c/per person for round trip) that will take you there (*there are always some boats parked by the Campground, so you do not have to worry about booking one in advance). During our last trip, we ended up driving to Pochote and asking a local fisherman to take us there and pick us up.
Alternatively, Los Vivos offers a $50 Daypass that includes a boat transfer (and $40 is allocated towards food purchased at the restaurant) to/from the island frrom "Camping Don Trino" Parking Lot. And if you purchase the Day Pass, you can use their comfy beach chairs. If tha option feels the most appealing, you can inquire directly with them to schedule that via WhatsApp +506 8318 3630. Wish you a fun trip!
