El Ancla Beach Bar

Locals point every visitor here first, and Las Olas backs up the recommendation with beach volleyball, a sushi bar, and 2-for-1 happy hour that keeps the place packed nearly every night.

Dancing right on the sand under the stars during reggae nights, Tabanuco is the local favorite for turning one drink into a full evening out.

Thursday nights here have been a town-wide event since 2008, live rock and reggae that turns Kika into the place everyone in Santa Teresa eventually ends up anyway.
