Cliff Divers: Watch expert cliff divers plunge fearlessly from a cliff top platform into six feet of water below.

Las Changueras (The Shrimp Ladies): Observe how these ladies sell their fresh daily wares, mostly shrimp, right on the sidewalk of the street for a full block. Be amazed by the different sizes of shrimp.

Golden Zone: After the excitement of cliff diving, you'll relax with a little stroll in the Zona Dorada, or Golden Zone, where you can browse souvenirs, jewelry and handcrafts amidst palm-lined beaches and luxury resorts.
