We were planning on visiting this port since we hadn’t been there before but we were notified the night before that we couldn’t because of not receiving the jab. Disappointed because I thought I had done my homework. ☹️ The white sand beaches and Caribbean waters looked inviting from the deck.

My favorite of all the islands. We rented a scooter and drove around the island in the rain off and on (80 miles). I would like to return sometime.
