There are fresh veggies in abundance at a very reasonable price. Breakfast & lunch meats were high. yikes! Anything imported was high. The local coffee is good & about the same price as in the States. I remember seeing pasta & oils but didn't price them. Prices vary from store to store.

I saved condiment packages prior to the trip & took those along...mustard, mayo, ketchup, butter, etc. along with small quantities of a few spices. If you have a favorite pasta take a package with you. Don't forget the sunburn remedy!

Far as flight vs. boat...neighbors loved the boat trip but we preferred to fly 'cause it gave us more time on the island. Alaurieb is correct...view of the island coming in is spectacular.

Have a great time!
