Placencia Sidewalk
A concrete walkway running through Placencia village, billed as the world's narrowest main street, lined with colorful wooden houses, guesthouses and snack bars.
The walkway runs north for about 1.2 km from the village's southern pier. Less than 1 meter wide, it is squeezed between the beach and the coconut palms. It was once listed by Guinness World Records as the narrowest main street in the world. Along the way are brightly painted stilt houses, guesthouses, cafés, craft stalls and ice cream shops, forming the main strip for strolling and dining in the village. It is open all day, free of charge. Evenings, when it is cooler, are the best time for a walk. Continue to the southern pier to watch the sunset and the fishing boats returning to harbor.
