Craving Isla Bastimentos’s indie brews? Follow this self-guided crawl of tucked-away cafés and sun-dappled courtyards.



1. Dawn Roastery Kick-off

Start at a micro-roaster just waking up; SecretLocale tips you on the single-origin beans locals queue for.



2. Hidden Garden Flat-White

Slip down an iron gate to a leafy patio few tourists notice—perfect for latte art photos before the rush.



3. Book-Nook Espresso Bar

Browse floor-to-ceiling second-hand trip planner shelves while the barista pulls an espresso shot aged in whiskey barrels.



4. Rooftop Cold-Brew Finale

Cap the crawl on a secret roof deck overlooking Isla Bastimentos. Cool down with a house-made cold-brew tonic—on us.



Save this map, skip the chains, and sip like a local.
