Travel Note
Travel Misc.
-Bring a little cash! USD or pesos (pretty much everywhere takes USD) for tipping and taxis if you plan on exploring the island - we absolutely recommend you do. The island is very small, and you can easily see all of it that is developed for a low cost. -The food is incredible. You have dinner plans Thursday - Saturday, but if you need any recommendations, scroll down!
