"San Juan is known for their local woven goods and weaving artisans. If you're looking for some authentic souvenirs to take home, this is the town to visit! As soon as you get off boat, you'll walk up the one main street that's FULL of souvenir shops. Everyone will be trying to sell you handmade dresses, scarves, pillow cases, shirts, and so much more. It can feel a bit overwhelming, so just browse around and ask for prices before you commit to anything. The streets are super colorful and fun to explore and walk around, so spend some time just enjoying the town and taking pictures. I'd recommend a day trip here and it's quite close to San Marcos."
