A beachfront spot at Brisas del Mar known for casual food, cocktails, and sunset views. It’s a great place to gather after a day on the water, with live music and a relaxed island atmosphere. This is your onsite watering hole and restaurant.
A small, colorful beach bar tucked at the end of the trail. Very quiet, like a Caribbean beach bar should be. Expect simple drinks, friendly locals, and laid-back sunset energy with games like cornhole right in the sand. To get there, walk down to the beach at Brisas, take a left, and walk approximately 100 yards. It’s located under the trees. Sometimes no one is there, sometimes there is. Part of the charm.
A boho-style café offering coffee, kombucha (our go-to location), and plant-forward food by day, with cocktails and ocean views in the evening. A popular stop for lighter fare and relaxed waterfront seating.
Part shop, part educational stop, this local favorite offers tours that explain cacao production, along with handcrafted chocolate bars and truffles. A quick and worthwhile break from the beach. Bring some chocolate home for friends and family (or keep it all to yourself!).
Built over the water, Booty Bar shifts from a mellow daytime hangout to a livelier evening scene. Known for sunset views, food, and a tropical atmosphere without feeling overdone. Great food, and even better music.
One of the most established dive shops in West End, offering reef dives, certifications, and beginner-friendly experiences. Small groups and easy access to nearby dive sites make it a reliable choice.
A breakfast and lunch favorite serving baked goods and tasty comfort food. Best known for oversized cinnamon rolls and an easygoing morning vibe. Perfect spot to hit for a quick breakfast sandwich between dives.
A convenient grocery stop in West End for snacks, drinks, and essentials. Clean, well-stocked, and easy for visitors needing quick supplies during their stay.
An Asian-fusion restaurant with waterfront dining and sunset views. Known for Thai classics, seafood dishes, and a relaxed (sometimes almost too relaxed 🙂 ) but polished evening setting.
A casual Caribbean restaurant with an over-water deck and strong sunset views. Offers local flavors, cold drinks, and a calm end-of-day atmosphere. The wings are incredible. Nice little beach area to grab a cocktail, overlooking Half Moon Bay.
A crescent-shaped beach with calm, clear water ideal for swimming, excellent snorkeling (left and right sections, away from boat traffic in the middle), and paddleboarding. Easily walkable to nearby cafes, bars, and shops, making it a central gathering spot in West End. There is also a small sunken sub and a rope swing boat (fun!).
An upstairs restaurant overlooking Half Moon Bay, offering seafood and elevated beach dining. A quieter and slightly more upscale alternative to beach bars with expansive views and a steady breeze.
A longtime West End staple known for sunset views, casual drinks, and a post-dive favorite. Simple, very laid back, and easy to linger longer than planned. Often hosts live music.
A waterfront restaurant specializing in grilled meats and hearty portions. A good option for a more filling meal while still enjoying ocean views. There are a couple of tables right on the beach – reserve early.
