Did you know that the island is part of a large reef that emerged many years ago?
This is why it is surrounded by beautiful coral reefs that are still well preserved today, making the island one of the most sought-after destinations in the Colombian Caribbean for diving and snorkeling.
WE ARE SEA
Recommendations:
– You should never step on a reef or touch it even if you think it’s dead. – If you have never used snorkeling equipment, ask for an explanation to avoid any damage or loss of the equipment.
– If you lose or damage equipment, you must pay the full value of the new equipment. – There are reefs very close to the hotel that you can swim or kayak to. – If you want to go to other deeper reefs we recommend the boat plan.
