Great Tip: On Tuesdays only - they have the Fish Tacos on offer at 2 tacos x $5.00...all day. Suggest you try their white Sangria...so refreshing!

If you want to go to the beach...

El Condado offers a great place near the Condado Plaza Hotel. Super cozy beach for tourists and locals to spend their day. Right in front you find La Laguna (the Lake) where you can practice Kayak and Paddleboarding...great experience. The local Bus T21 will take you right in front of the beach, and returning is on the sidewalk in front of the Laguna. Very convenient.
Kā ietaupīt

Local transportation or Uber

Either way is cheap and will let you get around the area. To visit some great tourist destinations maybe renting a car is the best option, for example if you want to visit El Yunque in Luquillo.

We are very friendly

Most people smile at you for no reason. Saying Gracias (thank you) and Por favor (please) will open doors for you. Also, Amigo (friend) to call the waiter will catch their attention.
