Hello Friend! 

In this page you will find some advice to have a comfortable, easy and calm trip to the beaches of our country: 

1. First that everything I recommend you to buy your ticket in advance, even in green season the buses are filled easily. 

2. You should arrive to the bus stop at least 30 minutes before the bus leaves. 

3. In some buses companies they give you a tag so that you request your baggage when you arrive, you don't lose it. If they don't give you this tag you have to be alert and to take care of your baggage. Every time that the bus stops on the road, you should see that nobody takes out your suitcases from the compartment. 

4. When you arrive to your destination, buy the ticket back immediately. 

5. Be careful with your hand baggage, don't fall asleep in the bus, watch over your belongings and if you use backpack, use it as front pack. 

6. You have to make sure that you take with you enough bugs repellent, a lot of sun blocker and suntan lotion. 

7. Try to take the sun before 10 in the morning or after 1 in the afternoon, mostly if your skin is white. 

8. In the beach, NEVER leave your belongings alone. It can be that somebody else wants them. 

9. In some beaches you should be careful with the monkeys, squirrels, some birds and iguanas, they sometimes take brilliant things (like your sun glasses, cameras, etc.) 

10. Take enough water with you so that you don't get dehydrated. 

11. Do not take a lot of cash, most of business in our beaches accept credit cards or debit. 

12. Very important, enjoy your vacations but be very careful with yourself and with your things, remember that in spite of everything you are in a foreign country and with people that you don't know and that they maybe have different customs. 

Good luck…
