Sightseeing

It is a must visit, historical place and great atmosphere. A tradition is to eat peanuts and throw the peanut shell on the ground, have fun! Ask for the story of the Margarita drink. People say that Hussong's is the place where the Margarita was created in October 1941 by bartender Don Carlos Orozco. Parking on the rear.

Wineries

I have a great experience with Don Raul's wine, I have known them since they had their cellar in their house, now you can visit them in a larger place, and their wine to my personal taste, since I am not an expert, is one of my favourites.

They give you a tour of their facilities, and then you can enjoy many different wines during the tasting. This is a paid tour, but it is not expensive. If you're new in the wine world, here is a good place to start.

Say "Buen provecho" when people is eating

It means, enjoy your meal. If you walk into a restaurant, then you say buen provecho to the people eating, and they will often reply with “gracias” or “igualmente” (which means likewise”)

The sunset at "La Ventana del Mar" is a must

Lovely sunset at La Ventana del Mar, the sea and the sunset the perfect combination.
