I agree with St. Martin stay on either side of the island, yet be sure to get a picture at the signs from one part of the island to the other... and rent a scooter to drive around the whole island, it doesn't take very long, much better than a car.
It was fun to eat at some of the local places off the road, that you would never find without a scooter.
Also look for the wild boars getting into the trash cans, always an adventure. I loved this place.
