If you park on the street in downtown Playa, be aware of the paid parking meters that are in effect from Monday to Sunday, 10 am to 10 pm. You’ll have to look for the parking post to pay the meter and display your receipt on your car’s dashboard.
For any sightseeing or activity further away, you can easily rent a bike, take a taxi, or go by ‘colectivo’ (shared-ride vans) where you need to go.
