Not as crowded as the west end of the island and better prices on everything from food to souveniers More

Enjoyed staying on the quiet side.....we did drive over to the north side beaches during the day...using Rt 20....easier drive...great views along the way....also got to visit Colombos smoothie shack after a day in the sun! We ususally stayed in Coral Bay area for dinner and drinks... More

Coral Bay doesn't look like much but there are some cool places. We are at Sylvia's Clean Plate next to Donkey Diner, bought fresh fish from Benjie, had a drink at Miss Lucy's. All these places look rather sad from outside but don't be dissuaded. More
