El Chiringuito Playa Blanca

Playa Blanca, Río Hato, Coclé — 20 min from Buenaventura $$

El Chiringuito is a toes-in-the-sand beach restaurant in Playa Blanca, just 20 minutes from Buenaventura. The concept is simple but perfect: fresh seafood, generous ceviches, whole fried fish, and frozen cocktails served at tables by the sea. This isn't a white-tablecloth spot — it's where locals go for the best fish on the coast. Weekends bring live music and a festive, laid-back vibe. Prices are very reasonable compared to resort restaurants.
