This spot is a short walk away from my place in the middle of La Placita which is great for people watching and enjoying the local vibe. I’ve trier most of the menu and must say it does not disappoint. The oysters are the best in the area in my humble opinion.

Sightseeing
This part of the island speaks for itself. I recommend simply getting lost and walking up and down every single street stopping for drinks at which ever bar tickles your fancy! It’s simply a charming and oh so beautiful place to visit.

This is worth renting a car for. It’s about a two hour scenic drive. You arrive early in the morning take a boat out ,I believe it’s a $3 ride, you get dropped off in the water, find a spot to store your cooler in the mangroves (come prepared with drinks and snacks) and enjoy the day standing in crystal clear turquoise water. It’s an experience you won’t forget.
