Getting Around
The bus heads straight down Calle 27 to get to Neek Kaan from Centro. The best pickup point is between the two markets (old and new) where there is a raised crosswalk. Access bus or combi from the old (red) market building side of the street.
To get to centro, walk one block away from the beach to Calle 29 and wave to the next bus or combi. Buses are cheap, entertaining, and they come frequently.
