💡 Go at low tide when the sandbars appear and you can walk out to the river mouth. Bring mosquito repellent — they get fierce after 4pm.
💡 Ask about the coconut-shell earrings — they take about 40 minutes to make and cost $3–5. The women appreciate tips but won't haggle. Cash only.
💡 Come around 7am when the bakery across the street has just baked pan de queso (cheese buns) — grab a coffee from the soda next door for under $1 total.
💡 Wear sturdy trainers or hiking sandals — the path gets slippery after rain. Go before 9am for the best light and to beat the heat. No water available on site.
💡 Call the community office (local phone number at the tourism kiosk) a day ahead to arrange a guide. They speak limited Spanish; bring small bills for the donation.
