Essentials
It's normal for the person that packs your grocery bag at the counter to take them to your car for a small tip. You can ask them to give them to you if you want to carry them. I do it all the time, it's not considered bad or impolite.

Parks & Nature
Blue water caves in the middle of a the city. Go on a weekday if you can, so there are less people. There are people that offer tours, but you can see it on your own as well.
There's a little boat that takes you across one side of the cave to the other that you can take if you'd like. I recommend it, you have to pay a little extra for this.
