“Where Columbus met the locals ”
A tourist attraction that's a little contrived and will cost you $8 to enter and then tips for all the different guides, You'll need to come either by tour bus, taxi or hire car,
“Columbus landed here in 1492. ”
Entrance fee is 8 pesos per adult. There's no map of where everything is located so you have to go exploring. There's plaques and monuments commemorating anniversary of Columbus landing here in 1492. There's a restaurant on top of a hill, very nice inside. There's a Taino village and cross indicating where Columbus came ashore.
