Hello can someone tell me where Bongo's Beach Bar is using this map?

Eugene,
Heading north, after Harbor Village, before the traffic circle. If you see the Sand Dollar, you went too far. If you see Capt Dons, you went too far. The sign you are looking for says Eden Beach Resort. There you will find Bongos.

Right around the 26-27 area if I read that map correctly. It's very easy to find. Just take the road north of town (main road) until you see the sign, turn in there and you'll be at Bongos in about 15 seconds....

Smack, last time I was there, I think there was also a "Bongos" sign by the road... is that still there ?

Eugene,

When are you going to be there? We want to see your happy smiling face on the WebCams. It is indeed before the traffic circle. The sign for Eden Beach and Bongo's looks like it is at the end of a dirt road. But just go down there and wave, put up a sign and say howdy.

And actually looking at it again - do you see the umbrella for Playa Lechi? That's where you want to go. That will be the correct area.

Eugene - you are going real soon - lucky you. OK, if you are going from Black Durgon toward Kralendik you will go around the traffic circle. Just past the circle you will see the sign on the right hand side of the road for Eden Beach and Bongos. And I believe that there will be a yellow rock to designate it as well.

Promise that you will both "mug for the cameras". We'll be waiting. Have a GREAT time.

Mara

It's the first dirt road south of the roundabout. As you're passing the tag end of Harbor Village, you'll see the Bongo's sign off to the left. Turn there.

On the Skyviews map, if you follow the dotted line from Der Lamar (sp?) and Yacht Club Apartments, it's the first black dot after you hit land.

Approx. GPS location is N12 09.87 W68 17.20 or just a hair more west. Here's a picture from

Oops, forgot to note that the map above is rotated 180, with North at the *bottom*.
