Food Scene
If you’re looking for a Mexican food fix, this is by far the best option on the island. They have all the tex-mex classics, and also have some great Mexican seafood options. This place is cash only and can get very busy, so be prepared to wait.

This is a chill sports bar right around the corner. The burgers are the best in Port A and they also have homemade pizza. Be warned though that service can be slow and it's not exactly sparkling clean, but hey...the beer is cold!

This is one of the only bars/restaurant that is actually right on the beach. Great place to grab a drink on the deck in the evenings; food is fairly decent, but the reason you go here is to enjoy the beachfront ocean breeze (There is not much of a view of the ocean due to the dunes, but it is right on the beach.)

This is one of the oldest bars in Port A and is a quintessential hole in the wall dive bar. This is a favorite of locals. Just be prepared to smell like smoke when you leave because they allow smoking inside. Gigi refuses to go because of this, so we make it more of a “guys night out” spot.
