Puerto Jiménez Offers Quality Dining
at the Edge of Corcovado’s Wilderness

The last stop before you drop off the grid, the Southern Zone's Puerto Jiménez is the gateway to the Osa Peninsula's eco-lodges and deserted beaches, and the staging stop for hikers heading into Corcovado National Park.
Hot and dusty, with iguanas basking on the broken sidewalks and scarlet macaws perched in almond trees, this rough-and-ready frontier town is not the first place you'd expect to find decent, let alone excellent, food. Surprise! You can eat remarkably well here.
The newest kids on the Puerto Jiménez culinary block offer an almost cosmopolitan range of good eats, from down-home barbecue pork ribs to real Italian pizza and fresh local seafood, as well as tasty treats from homemade ice cream to brownies, bagels and espresso
