Avenida Pastor diaz in front of Economy Rent a Car: 6:30am - 6:00pm. The Panaderia Artesanal is a small treasure located on the north end of Jaco, next to Chucks Surf Shop. Their homemade bread is the best I have found in Jaco, generously sized, reasonably priced... the ciabatta bread and french breads are my favourites! Sandwiches come in generous portions, served on croissants or baguettes and include a homemade frozen "limonada" or iced tea during lunch hours. The staff is friendly, always greets you with a smile and makes you feel at home. Definitely worth checking out to grab a coffee, fruit smoothie, breakfast or lunch, whether alone or with friends. This small and charming bakery is big on quality.

Sightseeing

Weather permitting and only 10 – 15 mins away by taxi take the time to go have a drink at Villa Caletas for the sunset view. It is awesome. The view overlooking the Nicola Peninsula and the mountain are breathtaking. You can just have drinks and enjoy the sunset or stay for dinner. The food is good but a little more expensive compared to eating in Jaco. Best time of the year for sunsets December – April, try to get their around 4:30 PM.
