Attractions and Tips

If your trip occurs from December through March, those are prime months for whale watching. Many specialty companies run trips where tourists go to places where they'll be most likely to spot the creatures up close.

Also, look for the Church of San Lucas. It's almost three centuries old, but has been kept up very well. Alternatively, the Cultural Center features a mirador tower that overlooks the area.

This area is sometimes threatened by hurricanes. You may want to avoid planning a trip for late summer, since that's when they're most common. However, even in the winter, the water can remain as warm as 70 degrees Fahrenheit. If you're a surfing enthusiast, expect to catch some good waves. Hotels near the marina are common, but they're usually pricier than options further away.
