Creator's Key Takeaways

We ignore the loud exuberant bar and restaurant mega chains such as Margaritaville and Hard Rock Cafรฉ that surround the international cruise port, and we head straight to a small family-owned cantina in the back streets that serves authentic Mexican food to the locals on the island.

So, we didn't actually book an excursion. We're just going to explore the island close to the port.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Ignore the tourist traps near the cruise port and walk a few blocks inland for authentic, local food.
โœ“Use your MedallionClass device to tap on and off the ship for a smooth check-in/check-out process.

We ignore the loud exuberant bar and restaurant mega chains such as Margaritaville and Hard Rock Cafรฉ that surround the international cruise port, and we head straight to a small family-owned cantina in the back streets that serves authentic Mexican food to the locals on the island...
