Most of the dishes consist of fish such as marlin, sea bass, shark and tuna, as well as shellfish such as shrimp and oysters.

Among the most outstanding dishes are pescado zarandeado (fish heavily marinated in chile and spices), sopes de ostión (oyster sopes), marlín ahumado (smoked marlín) and pescado tatemado (grilled fish).

There are famed chefs who have put San Blas on the culinary map making creations such as arroz caldoso de mariscos con azafrán, made with rice with seafood, saffron, fennel seeds, olives and white wine, or cerdo con salsa dulce de yaca and chile chipotle, made with pork, sweet jackfruit sauce and chipotle pepper.

Among the desserts, the most famous in the region is pan de plátano (banana bread) and even better if there is an equally delicious coffee to accompany it.

You can find all these delicacies in the restaurants in the main square or in the pleasant ramadas (informal restaurants) on the beach. You will surely be surprised by the gastronomy of San Blas.
