Approximately 4,000 people live on the island and the main economic activity is Fishing . Due to the reliance of marine resources and alternative industries being limited in number, has caused great pressure upon the islands natural resources. Due to this situation a project has been created to establish a bank of Pianguas (''Anadara tuberculosa'' and ''Anadara similis''), a kind of Oyster , for Artisan Fishing , in order to create a commercially viable resource for the long term. Additionally attempts have been made to encourage various activities related with tourism, primarily using the Islands natural and geographical resources, such as Manglares and the Tempisque River , as well as the local culture.
