I think you missed the Piragua.Its scrapped or crushed ice,in a cone form placed upside down on a paper cup and covered with syrup of your favorite flavor.Its very famous on the Old San Juan bay.
Limber is not crushed ice. It’s actually an ice with flavor. Piragua is the crushed/shaved ice and they pour a flavor syrup. But nice job done in the videos! Glad you enjoyed my island.
Im from Puerto Rico and there are a lot of more places to go when you come to travel and a lot a more food, like mofongo, arroz con habichuelas, alcapurrias, pinchos that are the things that puertorricans like to eat more, the beach that you can go are mar bella in Vega Baja, manatees in Manati, crash boat in Aguadilla, flamenco in culebra, that are the most beautyfull beaches in Puerto Rico. When you travel to Puerto Rico dont go only to the old San Juan go to other places too .
I was blessed to have a friend in high school who invited me to go to Puerto Rico with her to visit her Grandma and her Titi and Cousin. I didn't know what to expect before I went. The host family (friends of my girlfriend's parents) were a little nervous when they found out I was coming. "What do we feed her?" they asked. I told my friend that whatever they make, I'll eat--if I wanted to eat burgers and fries, I can stay in the states. Everyone we visited was so warm, loving and welcoming. I immediately fell in love with the island and its people. I also fell in love with the food! And OMG, did I get a chance to eat. Every home we went to welcomed us with hugs and kisses and then invited us to eat. Puerto Ricans are my adopted people. I love the people, the food and the island. If you plan on visiting, don't do the touristy stuff. Go Air B & B and get to know the natives. There's so much more to the island that tourist attractions and shopping. The people are warm, wonderful and friendly. You won't be able to keep from falling in love with the whole island. I was so blessed to be able to stay with a family that called Puerto Rico home. I dream of eating rice and beans, mofongo and bacalao. I want to go back and rediscover the people of this wonderful island!
We went there last summer. My family enjoyed the Moro fort . So much history to see there. I felt like Puerto Rico is the combination of the best part 🇭🇹 and 🇺🇸. My family go to Puerto Rico every few years. We LOVE it there. Everyone was Super nice. We felt so safe.
The best thing about Puerto Rico is that you haven't lost your ancient and beautiful identity since the country was taken from Spain by the US. The language and the Spaniard colony buildings are very preserved. This makes Puerto Rico unique inside the US.
Worst service in there. The cofee its good but the mofongo it is so blah. I visit every year and last time I decidedly I was never coming back. There is a lot of places better than Manolin, my family is from there and fhey don’t like that place. Raices restaurant ( touristy) or any chinchorro around there its so much better. Bacardi its free, I have necer pais a cent.
If you love San Juan, you would love the paradise on other cities, as Culebra Flamenco Beach, Icaco Island on Fajardo, the views and food from the Mountain, the best Dawn you would see on Rincon or a beautiful beach as Crash Boat or Las Ruinas on Aguadilla, there's a lot to see and food to try outside San Juan, like Piñones, Ponce, Arecibo (some Caves) There's a lot of things waiting for you on your next trip ❤️🇵🇷
I was there in Sept and visited most of the spots in your vid. Brought back the feels and makes me wanna book a flight again. One spot we hit that was amazing was Punto de Vista rooftop restaurant in San Juan, great Mofongo with garlic sauce.
Exelente experiencia culinaria, de las mejores bebidas, playas hermosas, increíbles vistas. Gente increíble y asombrosas artesanías. Experiencia caribaña única. Le recomiendo mucho. Soy de PR. Espero algún día visitar México.🍍🌺
Welcome to the island and thanks for coming here. I loved the vlogs. I'm so happy that you tried Mofongo. Is one of the best dishes in the puertorican cuisine. Next time you should try alcapurria and bacalaito (famous street food). Preparation of alcapurrias: The dough surrounding the meat, the masa, is made primarily of green banana and grated xanthosoma ("yautía") in most of Puerto Rico. The meat is often ground beef, such as picadillo, but can be any chopped meat like corn beef or seafood. The masa is refrigerated for several hours to achieve a solid consistency, then filled with picadillo, ground beef, etc., and deep-fried in oil.
I’ve visited San Juan many times and I have to say you did an amazing job explaining places to visit, what to eat, etc.!! Just to add here are two of my go spots in Old San Juan: Cafe Don Ruiz - I love the Puerto Rican café con leche and the classic Mayorca ham and cheese sandwich. Princesa Gastrobar restaurant - for great tasting Puerto Rican food and drinks. It’s also very cute and they sometimes have live music.
Very good video! My wife and I are planning to visit Puerto Rico in early 2022 and this is a great introduction to our learning more about this beautiful island. We have several friends who still have relatives in Puerto Rico so we are hoping they will give us some more information about what to see and what to do. So excited to make this happen!
once again, thanks for visiting my home guys! Just a snapple fact. Bacardi is a Cuban rum (Cuban family) made in Puerto Rico. Even we locals consider it Cuban and not Puerto Rican. if you want to try true puerto rican rum get yourself some RON DEL BARRILITO. super famous. my father drinks it regularly. and damn you where at la factoria which is literally right across the street from taberna lupulo for the best and largest craft beer bar in all of puerto rico for some local craft beer. cheers, heres to you guys coming back and exploring more outside of the tourist stuff.
Thank you for this comment. I was wondering the same when he went to Bacardi. I will check out your recommendation when we are there after the holidays.
Please pray for healing me financially, having mercy and love for me forever. I pray my husband is faithful to me Saint Anne❤️I pray he provides for me. And blesses me in the business. I pray we can work together and bring my income up. I need money to pay rent and fix my vehicle in the name of jesus 🙏🏻🥰❤️😇🌹I pray my father financially support me🙏🏻💳💰💵
I’m going to Puerto Rico in February 2020 and I can’t wait my home town, I wasn’t born there but I’ll my aunt and cousin and grandmas and uncles life there. So I can’t wait to see my family and see how it is to be come my own local and try as much food I haven’t tried yet. I can’t wait to have fun and explore my home town
Just came back from Puerto Rico! The cost for both castles is $10 now. Also maybe you could mention that you could eat at a restaurant where the pina colada was invented, it was $7 for a drink and super good!
Thanks for sharing ....... but..... they didn’t told you how to eat limbers the right way. U have to flip it and eat it from the bottom THATS PUERTORRICAN STYLE🤣🤣🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷love u guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He said that limbers is a crushed ice and it is wrong, that is a Piragua. A Limber is a hard ice juice (not crushed). I could be make with different flavors like cream, coconut, tamarindo, frambueza, lime, grape, etc.
Great video. I was raised in PR and you pretty much hit the essentials. Good job! Only one small error: A limber is not liquid. It's basically fruit syrup frozen solid in a cup which you suck on while it slowly melts. What you describe in your video is called a piragua and it's also fruit syrup but partially frozen like a slurpy. Limber by the way was named after Charles Lindberg the guy who flew over the Atlantic in the 1930's. It's the way Puerto Ricans pronounced his name. Again, great job and thanks.
So glad you’re making this videos. I watched many of your videos of things to do NYC and they helped me a lot during my last visit, even though I’ve been there many times. I’m sure this video will do the same for many newyorkers who want to visit my island. Thank you!
Glad you liked my town, thank you for the video showing your love to Old San Juan made me happy and proud, and congratulations in your wedding!! Bless you guys
So glad I watched this. My daughters and I tried all the food that you recommended and I must say so myself, those fish tacos are AMAZING! Thanks for sharing this awesome video so that my girls and I could taste the great foods of Puerto Rico!
You have to go to Raises Restaurant. Is very authentic, food is incredible and the ambience, docor and theme take you in the to past. Also just a block away you can find Torrefacion y Cafe. This is a coffee Shop. They sell authentic puertorrican coffee, for sure the best coffee I've ever had by far. These 2 places are a must next time you visit San Juan.
@@Lowgss we never use tour companies. Nothing against them it's just not our speed. We rented a car for about 34 dollars a day and explored all over the islands. If you want to see Culebra or Vieques or the Rainforest I recommend renting a car. Beware of the topes slow down when you see that sign. Feel free to check out our videos to get some idea's. Safe travels and Congratulations!
Glad you loved my lovely island, next time. Tembleque. Its a coconut based dessert that its just simply delicious amazing gorgeous. And a walk on paseo la princesa there in old San Juan its also nice. Love your videos
I went in December 2019 on a Harmony of the seas cruise. We went on an excursion with Carlos Tours. It was amazing! It was private; only the 7 of us. We saw so many places in 5 hours! Highly recommend him!!
That was awesome!! I'm actually taking my wife out there for the first time since we've been married. thank you for the refresher. But I would say to add some of the street foods like pichos, emapanadillas, alcapurias, bacalaitos. Some of our favorites! Awesome video and thanks again!
As a recident I would recommend to go to La Fortaleza and just walk around the front of it where there is i huge puertorican flag also for the family’s defenedly should go fly a kite in the morro it’s super fun Those are some recommendations that I dint see and just wanted to say
From Jan 15 thru 20th we have the Sebastian Street Festival, food, music, artisans, and a lot of people. Also, in Old San Juan you should visit Barrachina, place where the Piña Colada was born.
Please pray for healing me financially, having mercy and love for me forever. I pray my husband is faithful to me Saint Anne❤️I pray he provides for me. And blesses me in the business. I pray we can work together and bring my income up. I need money to pay rent and fix my vehicle in the name of jesus 🙏🏻🥰❤️😇🌹I pray my father financially support me🙏🏻💳💰💵
Great tips for a weekend getaway. Next time you should try the mallorca pressed like a panini. I love mine just with cheese but you can order it with ham and cheese.
You finally made it to my Island. Great job as usual , the grave you panned twice is actually the resting place of Jose Ferrer the academy award winner in 1950 . His son actor Miguel Ferrer who died recently is also entombed there. Directly across from the lancha terminal in Catano is my favorite local Restaurant Don Tello you should check out next time. I'm NY born but my Moms family grew up in Catano. I still own the family home in a town called Levittown ( yes the same ones that built the homes many homes in Levittown Long Island }.
Thank you sooo much for this video I’m staying in dorado I leave Friday for 6 nights I want to do everything in this video seems very affordable and easy to get around I hope. I am so excited for this history the tours the food and dancing on my honeymoon!!!
Fantastic video of things to do in Old San Juan! Thank you for helping me add to my list! My family loves it there and will be there again in July. One thing we love to do is stroll around the city and its amazing wall at night. It is well lit up, safe, and full of life. Also, if you have a US National Parks’ Senior Pass, it will get you and 3 guests into the forts for free.
Great video. Do not hesitate to visit La Placita. It is a most in P.R. I moved to boston 5 years ago but visit P.R every other month and when I do I will see myself at this nice spot. Very local but tourists are treated like kings.
San Juan es Hermoso... sin dudas pero también lo es La Parguera en Lajas, la hermosa playa de Flamenco en Culebras, Playa Negra en Vieques, visitar Ponce, entre muchos pueblos más. Los turistas piensan que Puerto Rico es sólo San Juan y no es asi son más de 70 pueblos por visitar y ver qué te ofrece cada uno. Gracias por visitarnos espero vuelvan pronto pero a visitar el resto de la isla.
The Despacito bar?! Im there! Love the reggaeton background music, brings a good rhythm to the vid. All that rum musta given u a headache in the morning at some point 😂
Great recommendations. I have done a couple of them but because I have never been in San Juan for very long it has been limited. I do want to spend more time there and I will try some of these things they sound great.
First Time Visiting This channel...I say You & wife Did it Great Job..About San Juan...I see comments say it is more placed...But Understand The Description of the Video 10 Thing to do is San Juan...Great Video👍👍👍
One spot you missed in Old San Juan was La Fortaleza (the official residence of the Governor Of PR) tours of grounds available. Also La Catedral (Cathedral) up the street from the Fortaleza. Enjoyed this video!!!
Please pray for healing me financially, having mercy and love for me forever. I pray my husband is faithful to me Saint Anne❤️I pray he provides for me. And blesses me in the business. I pray we can work together and bring my income up. I need money to pay rent and fix my vehicle in the name of jesus 🙏🏻🥰❤️😇🌹I pray my father financially support me🙏🏻💳💰💵
Bonsoir Jon...wow wow wow...ce ciel bleu...cette mer....le cimetière est superbe...cette visite m a enchantée et j ai trouvé Adriana ravissante....merci Jon pour cette magnifique vidéo ❤
Excelent video, thanks for the positive comments ane great info about the area. Tomorrow I am heading to Old San Juan. You got yourself a new subscriber.
you missed paseo de la princesa. it's a like a boardwalk that goes behind La fortaleza. also la catedral. one of the most antique church in the old san juan.
Nice VIDEO... next time in PR,,, go to Ponce on the South coast,,, is different than San Juan,,, San Juan is SPANISH COLONIAL,,,, Ponce: INFLUENCE is from FRANCE. The BEst Museum in PR and the Caribbean,.... the Old Fire House, the HELADO CHINO ( Chinese ice cream), Hacienda Buena Vista, Isla Caja de Muertos, etc...

Here Be Barr
I was just there from 12/6-tuesday and i had a great time!
I had a tequila sunrise and the coconut drink at the bacardi tour!
lu cute and funny Yes its around 82 there٫ and gets windy but feels good!

Thanks for the clarification , I loved it !
I came here for this 😅
Yep
I remember a sweet old lady that used to sell limber in front of my school (I hope she is alive)
Limber is next level yo
Someone said "practice your listening skills" while discovering the beauty of another country? Well done. I loved your video!

Fax I really am surprised he didn’t include any other authentic Puerto Rican restaurants or food lol
He said mofongo.
Hi, traveling to San Juan in Feb, do you give tours?
Hello, travelling end of may, do you give tours?? Only there for a day. Thanks!!

Bruh I’m from Puerto Rico and I hate the place I wanna move to somewhere that isn’t in Puerto Rico 😂😂
Frances Rolón why do you hate it
definitely an envious dominican 🙄
🤡
Where in Puerto Rico is there a Haitian influence based off of the 🇭🇹 flag you put?
Finca Cialitos, small local coffee in Old San Juan, Abracadabra in Santurce, Kasalta, Ocean Park for casual bakery/lunch
Kasalta está sobre valuado 😅
Yes, yes and yes!!
I love Finca Cialitos. Best coffee
It makes my heart so happy to see people enjoying our little island. Hope the rest of your trip is wonderful ✨
I love San Juan !
The best thing about Puerto Rico is that you haven't lost your ancient and beautiful identity since the country was taken from Spain by the US. The language and the Spaniard colony buildings are very preserved. This makes Puerto Rico unique inside the US.
Yessss Cafe Manolín! That mofongo was next level
Guess who I took that pick from ? :)
I live above Manolin!!
I should go to Cafe Manolin then!
Worst service in there. The cofee its good but the mofongo it is so blah. I visit every year and last time I decidedly I was never coming back. There is a lot of places better than Manolin, my family is from there and fhey don’t like that place. Raices restaurant ( touristy) or any chinchorro around there its so much better.
Bacardi its free, I have necer pais a cent.
Her Soul Vacation no please don’t go . Go to Raices restaurant
If you love San Juan, you would love the paradise on other cities, as Culebra Flamenco Beach, Icaco Island on Fajardo, the views and food from the Mountain, the best Dawn you would see on Rincon or a beautiful beach as Crash Boat or Las Ruinas on Aguadilla, there's a lot to see and food to try outside San Juan, like Piñones, Ponce, Arecibo (some Caves)
There's a lot of things waiting for you on your next trip ❤️🇵🇷
Limbers, see it at 10:32 in Old San Juan is owned by a family of mine from my mother side. They have been there for more than 40 years.
Every time we are in OSJ we walk to the city door and then buy Limbers from them.
Bienvenidos a Puerto Rico 🇵🇷y gracias por mostrarle al mundo un pedacito de nuestras bellezas.🤗🌹
Do you recommend solo travel and where do you recommend ?
I was there in Sept and visited most of the spots in your vid. Brought back the feels and makes me wanna book a flight again. One spot we hit that was amazing was Punto de Vista rooftop restaurant in San Juan, great Mofongo with garlic sauce.
De mucha ayuda!!!! Ahora estoy más entusiasmada de ir al bello Puerto Rico ;) .. saludos desde México
Ojalá lo puedas lograr.

Gabriela Ortiz I live in Virginia (love Virginia), but I miss my island 😔♥️🇵🇷✨
I'm gonna move from FL to Pr!
I was there a little over a month ago, just loved it! I feel like, I already want to go back to San Juan!

I’m going to Puerto Rico in February 2020 and I can’t wait my home town, I wasn’t born there but I’ll my aunt and cousin and grandmas and uncles life there. So I can’t wait to see my family and see how it is to be come my own local and try as much food I haven’t tried yet. I can’t wait to have fun and explore my home town
My wife and I are doing our honeymoon down here first week of February. Really appreciate this info.

You could actually have mallorcas as a grilled sandwich. My favorite would be with cheddar cheese and smoked ham.
We loved San Juan and everywhere else we went in Puerto Rico. If you ever get a chance do the Bioluminescent bay tour on Vieques.
I am going there for my honeymoon in a few months! Which tour company did you use?
@@Lowgss we never use tour companies. Nothing against them it's just not our speed. We rented a car for about 34 dollars a day and explored all over the islands.

I’m so glad you visiting my Island 🌴!!!!👋🏻🇵🇷
I’m glad you visited Puerto Rico
I am very happy that you guys have a great time in my home Puerto Rico!!
Very good and informative video.
Glad you loved my lovely island, next time. Tembleque. Its a coconut based dessert that its just simply delicious amazing gorgeous. And a walk on paseo la princesa there in old San Juan its also nice. Love your videos
One of the best guides I have seen.
My mother is From Carolina City in Puerto Rico. Very beautiful city too. 🌴🌴🌞🇵🇷 🇺🇸
Denice Carla Gordon My grandma too, I’m from Trujillo Alto.🇵🇷♥️
Carolina es horrible. Thanks but no thanks.
Cafe Manolin is the best, I eat there several times a day when in Old San Juan
Thank you Here Be Barr and to everyone with suggestions! Heading there end of January for a few days, your video and all the comments are so helpful!
I went in December 2019 on a Harmony of the seas cruise. We went on an excursion with Carlos Tours. It was amazing! It was private; only the 7 of us. We saw so many places in 5 hours! Highly recommend him!!
It was really fun!! Food in Puerto Rico is next level!! :D

Team Adriana ❤😘
That was awesome!! I'm actually taking my wife out there for the first time since we've been married. thank you for the refresher. But I would say to add some of the street foods like pichos, emapanadillas, alcapurias, bacalaitos. Some of our favorites! Awesome video and thanks again!
The fort is awesome! Old San Juan is awesome for shopping.
Great list, Jon! Loved the video. You covered a lot of bases while you were here. Hopefully, we'll catch you next time! -Jim
Thanks Jim ! Yes, would be a shame if we didn't cross paths the next trip.
Perfect list. I've been before but focused on vieques island this time I'll do almost everything mentioned on this list
And the forest
As a recident I would recommend to go to La Fortaleza and just walk around the front of it where there is i huge puertorican flag also for the family’s defenedly should go fly a kite in the morro it’s super fun
Those are some recommendations that I dint see and just wanted to say
This is awesome - thank you so much! We are headed there in October, this gives such a good view on what to do in a few days.
We are going there in January, can't wait! :) Thanks for sharing this info
From Jan 15 thru 20th we have the Sebastian Street Festival, food, music, artisans, and a lot of people. Also, in Old San Juan you should visit Barrachina, place where the Piña Colada was born.
Youll love it...I wanna go back!
Thanks for visiting my island ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ the people who are great and you will enjoy and come back
I’m heading to Puerto Rico next week and your video got me so hyped! I was looking forward to the trip but now I’m totally obsessed. Well done 👏
Please pray for healing me financially, having mercy and love for me forever. I pray my husband is faithful to me Saint Anne❤️I pray he provides for me. And blesses me in the business. I pray we can work together and bring my income up. I need money to pay rent and fix my vehicle in the name of jesus 🙏🏻🥰❤️😇🌹I pray my father financially support me🙏🏻💳💰💵
Hope y’all are having fun here in PR 🇵🇷 I live in humacao!
I’m visiting San Juan soon. Seems fun
Katrina un mojito en mayo...nos veamos...te envito..😉
Great tips for a weekend getaway. Next time you should try the mallorca pressed like a panini. I love mine just with cheese but you can order it with ham and cheese.
You finally made it to my Island. Great job as usual , the grave you panned twice is actually the resting place of Jose Ferrer the academy award winner in 1950 . His son actor Miguel Ferrer who died recently is also entombed there. Directly across from the lancha terminal in Catano is my favorite local Restaurant Don Tello you should check out next time. I'm NY born but my Moms family grew up in Catano. I still own the family home in a town called Levittown ( yes the same ones that built the homes many homes in Levittown Long Island }.
Gracias :) An amazing island indeed.
Love this, you're making me want to go back and visit my island :)
Michelle I almost cried. Miss my island so much.♥️🇵🇷🌴
I spent so much time in San Juan. I was born in Carolina but San Juan is my go to hang out spot! :)
Thank you sooo much for this video I’m staying in dorado I leave Friday for 6 nights I want to do everything in this video seems very affordable and easy to get around I hope. I am so excited for this history the tours the food and dancing on my honeymoon!!!
Excellent video man! I visited San Juan for the first time in October of 2019 and you covered it all in a precise fun way. Thanks! 👊🏾
This video of yours helped a lot. Thanks for making and sharing it!
Next time you come to puerto rico you need to go to the beach puero nuevo vega Baja and its divide into 2 and to cabo rojo las salina
I really want to go to San Juan Puerto Rico and visit many of the historic sites and buildings! I am a history buff and a historic preservationist.
You'll love Old San Juan :)
Thank you very much.
I was waiting for this video, Thank you, please go around the world and keep up the good work
Yes, more travel content coming in 2020 :)
You were right on the corner at la factoría, diagonal across from la taberna lúpulo, the greatest craft beer spot in P.R, perhaps the world
top 50 in the world. cocktails
Beautiful Island. Beautiful people. Amazing food.
That’s sounds pretty cool
Fantastic video of things to do in Old San Juan! Thank you for helping me add to my list! My family loves it there and will be there again in July. One thing we love to do is stroll around the city and its amazing wall at night. It is well lit up, safe, and full of life. Also, if you have a US National Parks’ Senior Pass, it will get you and 3 guests into the forts for free.
Great video. Do not hesitate to visit La Placita. It is a most in P.R. I moved to boston 5 years ago but visit P.R every other month and when I do I will see myself at this nice spot. Very local but tourists are treated like kings.
unfortunately kinda closed during covid. you can still eat though
La Cueva del Mar! We had a great meal there 👍🏼
Why am I NOT surprised hahaha. I'm going to put a card to your food video in my video now, i forgot !!
San Juan es Hermoso... sin dudas pero también lo es La Parguera en Lajas, la hermosa playa de Flamenco en Culebras, Playa Negra en Vieques, visitar Ponce, entre muchos pueblos más. Los turistas piensan que Puerto Rico es sólo San Juan y no es asi son más de 70 pueblos por visitar y ver qué te ofrece cada uno. Gracias por visitarnos espero vuelvan pronto pero a visitar el resto de la isla.
The Despacito bar?! Im there! Love the reggaeton background music, brings a good rhythm to the vid. All that rum musta given u a headache in the morning at some point 😂
😂😂
Great recommendations. I have done a couple of them but because I have never been in San Juan for very long it has been limited. I do want to spend more time there and I will try some of these things they sound great.
First Time Visiting This channel...I say You & wife Did it Great Job..About San Juan...I see comments say it is more placed...But Understand The Description of the Video 10 Thing to do is San Juan...Great Video👍👍👍
I’m going for the first time in a few weeks. I’ve been to Hawaii a few times, I hope it’s as nice as Hawaii 👏🏾
One spot you missed in Old San Juan was La Fortaleza (the official residence of the Governor Of PR) tours of grounds available. Also La Catedral (Cathedral) up the street from the Fortaleza. Enjoyed this video!!!

You Guys Should Go To La Playa Luquillo And Try Out Alcapuria And Bacalaitos And Piña Colada Is Super Refreshing
Going there tmr
I love this video, thank you, now I know where to go 🙌🏼
you missed paseo de la princesa. it's a like a boardwalk that goes behind La fortaleza. also la catedral. one of the most antique church in the old san juan.
Not “one of the most”, the MOST antique church in the AMERICAS!
We are sailing here on the MSC Seascape in September. This was very helpful to us! Thank you!
Nice VIDEO... next time in PR,,, go to Ponce on the South coast,,, is different than San Juan,,, San Juan is SPANISH COLONIAL,,,, Ponce: INFLUENCE is from FRANCE. The BEst Museum in PR and the Caribbean,.... the Old Fire House, the HELADO CHINO ( Chinese ice cream), Hacienda Buena Vista, Isla Caja de Muertos, etc...
Yes please before you go to the Island have a plan if you’re only just going to be there for a few days.there is a lot to do
Thanks for visiting my beautiful island !!!!
