Santo Tomas Winery is on the main street east of the harbor but walking distance. You can see what it was like in the early days when alter boys used to serve the wine to priests in church. You can walk down to see the cellars here. The restaurant next door is delightful, so make a reservation if you like, in advance.

Today’s Travel Advice-

Plan some things and leave a lot of unplanned days on your trip for some spontaneity. You don’t need to have a new destination every day. You may find that you want to stay longer, linger and enjoy the roses. Give yourself time to get to know your destination before you leave so soon.
