Enter Jaguar Park at opening. The area is freshly protected, so the morning light is clear and the crowds have not yet arrived. Spend the first hour exploring the trails and learning about the jaguar conservation efforts.

Walk 13 minutes to Chalulu for a late breakfast or early lunch. This Mexican restaurant opens at 08:00, so it will be ready for you after your park visit. Order local dishes to refuel before the heat of the day.

Head to Playa Santa Fe, an 11-minute walk from the restaurant area. It is a less crowded beach with a smaller beach club, offering a relaxing atmosphere away from the busy tourist spots. Enjoy the ocean breeze and the calm water.
