The boat tour along the rocky coastal bays west of the port was superb. Word to the wise: get a seat on the starboard (right-hand) side of the tour boat for the best views. The bus tour of local highlights before the boat trip included two good scenic viewpoints and an incredibly boring and repetitive talk from the guide on the bus. ...
There is a small port shop area with some stalls and bars / restaurants. Nice beach right off the cruise ship dock where you can buy a beer and sit at a restaurant and go right into the water. ...
WE had the worst excursion of the whole cruise there..... AS I explained earlier, paid 78 dollars per person for a 2.1/2 hour ride to see nothing. I found this a money grab by Princess, all that bus did was take us to see 2 princess run shops and 1 church.. A total waste of time... ...

Basically the bus drove around and showed us the gates to hotels , an agave plant yep one plant on a hill. And a church where the tour guide disappeared! I recommend the lovely restaurant to the left of the pier right On the beach. Skip the tour hit the restaurant sip ...
