Isla Islote: Glass bottom boats line the shore waiting to take 
people for a ride near this island where you can view marine life 
through the boat bottom and see frigate birds and terns nesting on the 
island.

WHERE TO EAT:

Some of the hotels feature a restaurant/bar option where guests can grab 
a bite to eat and meet the neighbors.  Around town you will find a few 
fruit stands and stalls with fruits such as mangos, in season pineapples, 
papayas and melons.  At the Trailor Park Villanueva, perhaps the most 
popular spot to eat, patrons dine on locally caught fresh seafood on the 
beachfront patio.  Chuy’s, a popular local hangout, serves reasonably 
priced Mexican dishes.  For a hearty yet inexpensive meal, head to the 
family-run Cocina Economica Dona Carmen.  Pozole, a spicy pork roast and 
hominy soup, tacos, and local seafood are all on the menu.  The Fuente de 
Sodas Arco Iris has an eclectic menu with items such as tacos, tortas, as 
well as burgers, stew and fruit juices.

Beaches: Playa Guayabitos is the main beach. Locals and 
tourists head to this beach for swimming, tanning, boat rides, and 
fishing. Farther down the beach there’s and area that’s good for 
bodysurfing and swimming. Afternoon winds make for good sailing and 
windsurfing. To get to Playa La Raza you will need a high clearance 
vehicle. The beach is perfect for sunbathing and camping.

Scuba Diving and Snorkeling: There’s a good dive spot offshore 
of Isla Islote, accessible only by boat. A few local stores sell masks, 
fins and snorkels.

Fishing: The Tournament of Sportfishing of the Sail-Fish is 
celebrated during February.

Tennis: There is a tennis court located at the Hotel Rincon de 
Las Palmas.

There are several mini-markets in town that offer the essential day to 
day items.
