Creator's Key Takeaways

i'm currently here in october and there's no threat of hurricane or tropical storm but we do get some storms that build up occasionally

so far i would say that 50 50 on it but i'm definitely going to take advantage of the free drinks and the free food

overall i would say that the beach here is a nice vibe but many of the bars and the nightlife are closed unless you're staying at one of the hotels

i would say overall yes it's going to be fairly safe experience obviously you have to take necessary precautions as with anywhere you go
