Does Boca Grande Pass have restrooms?
No restrooms are mapped within 600 m on OpenStreetMap. That means nobody has mapped any, which is not the same as there being none.
When is Boca Grande Pass least busy?
Google visit patterns put the quietest hour at Tue 7pm and the busiest at Fri 12pm.

Measured from OpenStreetMap, public aerial imagery and live conditions data, and counted from visitor reviews. Every source, in full.
