• Rent a car
• Don’t try to cram too much stuff into each day

After reading about the award winning (seriously?) bus system we opted to see the island by bus. The first day was nearly a disaster. Once we picked up TheBus Map and Guide Book things went a bit smoother, but as it was I believe we spent an average of an hour or more a day waiting for buses and deciphering routes and another 2-3 hours a day riding on buses.

Pick a few things you want to do and dedicate whole days to them. Trying to see and do a whole island’s activities in a few days just isn’t going to work. Most attractions close up around 4 and no matter how well you plan everything just feels rushed and you can’t really DO the things, just look at them.
