Our #1 recommendation on day trips. The boat to Tortuga Island. 🏝 which is basically how you’d picture a bounty island to be. The tour inc. snorkeling 🤿 , banana boat ride, a nature hike. And just fun time at the beach. Oh yes and cocktails and flunch. Contact us to make a reservation.

Enjoy butterflies in abundance 🦋🦋🥰 I personally loved the tour: however this was all in Spanish. So not recommended when not speaking Spanish. However there are lots of butterflies to see and especially great when traveling with kids.
