The little beachside community of Punta Gorda is the original landing site of the Garifuna population. There are several restaurants in Punta Gorda that sell Garifuna food such as machuca, and on Sunday afternoons, you can stop by to listen to the drum beats and Garifuna music as some of their community get up to dance the punta, and invite the audience to participate.

Punta Gorda is the culture town of this island. The Garífunas are african and indigenous descendants with their culture and language. A must do activity is to ahead to Punta Gorda on Sundays, as there is a carnaval like atmosphere. Dance punta, take loads of beautiful pictures, and indulge in garífuna cuisine.

A must visit when on the island. Learn about the Garifuna culture and have a local lunch or dinner over the water. If you like great seafood, this is the place for you. Try the Machuca, in incredible seafood soup in a delicious coconut broth.

Punta Gourda is on the east end of the island, a bit of a drive but a village where you can experience the local culture. Wonderful people.

Sunday afternoons is the neighborhood dance party and you can find you a bowl of the traditional Machuka seafood soup at a local restaurant.
