One of my fondest memories is when I was 8 or so, I would go out on the lobster boats in New Brunswick with my grandfather. You'd help haul traps for half the day and they would let you take a 5 gallon pale full of fresh lobsters home with you. We had a 45 gallon drum right on the beach besides my grandpa's house where we'd boil them up in sea water and eat them right on the picnic table. :)

Best spiny lobster I had was in Cuba. Found a guy near our resort who had a shack on the beach. All he sold was lobster and beer. $5 for a lobster cut in half and BBQ'd and 75 cents for a Corona :)


nice...I can share that same experience from the north shore of Mass.

nothing like it with some steamers and some corn on the cob

Go to La Princesa Marina as the others have said. I had asked where the locals go and this was the common answer. It's a 15 min or so cab ride from the gulch. The lobster is great but the veggies and sides are not as tasty as what you would find in US. They were open to my change off of the menu - lots of lobster with minimal upcharge. BUT, bring your own real butter - they serve swirl or similar - YUK.
