Sunset at La Palapa
We sat at a table right on the sand. I recommend getting reservations that span the time when the sun will be setting. The view is incomparable (bring a camera, wear sandals you can slip off easily, don't plan anything else on the evening you eat here). I had the fresh catch of the day which was offered in three different preparations. It was cooked perfectly with all fresh ingredients. Make sure you end your meal with "Sexy Coffee". I'd love to describe how it is prepared, but it would ruin the surprise. Just trust me on this! After the sun has set, they light tiki torches on the beach. VERY ROMANTIC. Great place to get engaged, celebrate an anniversary, etc.

I completed my Open Water Diver certification with Twin Dolphines and have been diving ever since. Fantastic instruction, enthusiastic, extemely competent, and entertaining instructors. All equipment was very well maintained. Great experience. Will use Twin Dolphines every time I go back to PV.
