Community Office & Eco Shop

The Community Office & Eco Shop is located next to the Punto Verde Local recycling station. It serves as an information center, a workspace for Proyecto Saladita’s environmental programs, and a community shop offering sustainable alternatives for everyday living.

Why It Matters

The Community Office & Eco Shop is more than a store—it is a community hub where residents and visitors can learn, participate in workshops, connect with local conservation efforts, and support environmental programs through their purchases.

By offering practical alternatives to single-use plastics and promoting refill, reuse, and recycling, this space helps foster a culture of environmental responsibility, conscious tourism, and community action. Every purchase directly supports Proyecto Saladita’s mission to protect the coast, strengthen local sustainability initiatives, and inspire small changes that create lasting impact.
