As the spring solstice approaches, the tides of Playa Norte and Playa Pinitos have dropped 50 meters exposing hidden rocks and oysters.

And while bathers avoid the two popular beaches due to the presence of sea urchins, oyster gatherers have found easy pickings among the exposed rocks.

As fisherman Raúl Lopez told media, fresh oysters are not bad, especially when you pick them yourself. All you have to do is search for them between the rocks.
