Datos rápidos: The lagoon stretches about 800 meters long and is framed by limestone cliffs rising 40 meters above the water. Snorkeling reveals vibrant coral reefs and schools of tropical fish just below the surface.
Destacados: Limestone cliffs create a towering natural gate that narrows to a 5-meter-wide entrance, flooding the lagoon with turquoise waters. Kayaking into the lagoon gives a close-up view of hanging vines and caves etched into the cliffs, often missed by larger boats.
Consejos de expertos
- Wear water shoes for rocky boat entry spots.
- Bring a waterproof camera for snorkeling shots.
- Arrive early to avoid crowd and secure the best kayak launch spots.
- Avoid weekends when day trips flood the lagoon with tourists.
