Take the taxi into town, it is absolutely beautiful to walk around. Huge beach, shops, churches, places to eat, bursting with colour and photo opportunities. Do it, you won’t regret it

There is the shopping area at the port and then just outside and across the street is a mall. There is an excellent area south of the port, maybe a 20 minute taxi ride, called Centro. We went to a chocolate museum there and made chocolates to take home. There was also a beach, shops, and restaurants. very walkable area.

the Hop on Hop off bus is fun,it goes all the way up into the mountains and to a nice beach with a restaurant and bar. Also there are several ziplining tour companies there if you're into that...

There wasn’t a lot of shopping right in port next to the ship. I had a wonderful massage right at port. You can walk to Playa de Oro- Gold Beach. It’s apparently a 10-15 minute walk. We haven’t done that yet but might next time. I’ve seen on YouTube how to walk there. There is a mall and Walmart close by across the street.

walk out to the street and grab a taxi. agree on the price before you get in. go to the Romantic Zone and wander. great restaurants and shopping. walk the malecon. taxis will take dollars but you get a better price if you have pesos
