Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Port Monkeys.

  1. Come up to deck 18 if you ever go under the Golden Gate Bridge or through the Panama Canal.

  2. Look for Planks Barbecue on every other night.

  3. Rent a car to explore the island.

  4. Be aware of shuttle times to avoid missing the last one.

  5. Check beach conditions before planning to snorkel.

  6. Watch the other video from New Wheelie Wheelie to find out the story of budget car rental.

  7. You can walk across the sand, but you have to walk across the water too.

  8. The hotel will ask you not to sit on the grass; sand is public, grass is hotel.
