Here you can witness almost on a daily basis manta rays, a wide variety of fishes, turtles, dolphins, etc. You can spend your days fishing, surfing, drinking coconut water, admiring the sunrise in the mornings or the millions of stars at night, the choice is yours! You will also be in contact with the indigenous people from this area, Kuna Yala, and will have the opportunity to learn a lot about their language, their rich culture and traditions.
