If you are not in a hurry (as service can be slow), Nogui's is the best place in town to taste local food with your feet on the sand. Great and hearty breakfasts.

Sightseeing
As you reach the Hotel Las Tortugas (in Playa Grande), make a right turn and follow the dirt road until it streches out into a narrow pathway, you’ll find a clear space between the trees to park your car (at the end of the road). This is a great spot if you want to do a pic-nic, swim or just enjoy a white sand beach with very few visitors

Very special and one of the most beautiful beaches in the country, it’s unique feature: white shells instead of sand!
They have now closed the beach access via Brasilito to Conchal for cars, for the public, there is only one way to get to Conchal and it’s by walking across Brasilito beach. You have two options:
Option 1: Park your car in Brasilito town and walk. There is no secure parking lot, it is just street parking.
Option 2: Park your car in the secured lot right outside Brasilito town and take the shuttle to Brasilito. You will still need to walk across the beach to get to Conchal but this parking is free, secure with cameras, a security guard and there are bathrooms, showers and changing rooms.
