El Camarón

4.7(85 reviews)

About

On Costa Rica, El Camarón sits in Provincia de Puntarenas, Chira, Bocana, a location on the Pacific side of the country.

El Camarón is known for a 4.7 out of 5 average drawn from 85 reviews, a strong showing across a modest number of ratings. First-time visitors arriving at the venue will find a Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/BaryRestauranteElCamaron/ carrying its own details. San José, Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde all lie within reach of the surrounding area.

Travelling to the venue from the main resorts and towns is helped by the ferries that cross the Gulf of Nicoya to the Nicoya Peninsula and by the small aircraft that serve coastal destinations. Costa Rica's forests and coasts hold sloths, howler monkeys and scarlet macaws, so a journey through the region often brings wildlife into view. Cloud forest, rainforest and dry tropical forest all occur within a short drive of one another, which makes the surrounding landscape varied for anyone moving between stops.

The country's tropical climate divides into a dry season from December to April and a wet season from May to November, which is worth weighing when planning a visit.
