Floating Restaurant A
Treat For Visitors Of
San Lucas
Today the Isla San
Lucas, the island that
once held Costa Rica's
infamous prison, is
becoming a tourist
attraction. And one of
those attractions is
flotating restaurant.
The floating restaurant
is a joint project by
the Asociación de
Pescadores de Isla
Venado, the Parque
Marino, the Instituto
Nacional de Aprendizaje
(INA) and the Misión
Técnica de Taiwán.
"We get a lot visitors.
We fish for them want
they want and we cook it
for them. We have all
types of fish", said
Alejo Salas, manager of
the floating restaurant.
The staff of the
restaurant rotate their
work shift in groups of
six, each spending a
week to work on the
project's main activity,
the cultivation of
spotted snapper and to
avoid stress.
"I like being at sea. We
have all the conditions.
It's different but it's
nice", said Salas who
added that it can also
be stressful being so
far away from
civilization. |
