The town of Punta Gorda is famous for its relaxed atmosphere and for being a popular destination away from the crowds. What makes Punta Gorda an interesting place to visit, is the Garifuna People — the oldest settlement on the island. They speak their own language and still keep the own traditions and culture alive. The locals also have their own cuisine which combines seafood, coconut milk, plantains, bananas and other local ingredients. Sunday is considered to be the best day to visit the town as it is a festive day for the Garifuna People.
