About
Quick facts: This saltwater lagoon is surrounded by more than 200 hectares of dry tropical forest. Its crystal-clear waters reach an average temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, perfect for a long swim.
Highlights: The impressive rock formations surrounding the bay act as a natural breakwater, keeping the water calm even when the Caribbean Sea gets rough offshore. At low tide, a small sandy passage emerges between the rocks, revealing an isolated natural pool that only the curious discover.
