La Caracola

Nothing embodies the effortless beach charm of José Ignacio better than La Caracola. The latest venture from the owners of Parador La Huella, La Caracola isn’t a bona fide club, but you do have to be invited or know the owners to get in. You arrive via a small rowboat that crosses Garzón Lagoon and deposits you at your destination: a simple wooden building with white walls, canvas awnings, a fireplace and wooden beach furniture. The décor is sparse to allow the views of the Atlantic to be the star attraction (along with the crowd of course.) The food is similar to that served at La Huella; nothing fancy but very fresh and delicious.

Note: La Caracola only accepts reservations for groups of 10 or more.
