TOP INSIDER TIPS
- Always book for Restaurants & Experiences in advance to avoid disappointment. Please note some restaurants are seasonal and not open during winter months.
- Take along a jacket, the weather on the coast changes all the time and we can experience four seasons in one day.
- Keep your Camera/smart phone full charged to snap Instagram worthy photos of all the beauty. If you do share on Social Media please hashtag us at #Stayinpaternoster and #PaternosterBucketlist. We love to see your Happy Snaps 🙂
- Make sure you are careful with your valuables – out of sight is the best policy to limit temptation.
- Have fun & make memories to remember with family & friends, these are the moments that count!
