Snabba fakta: The refuge protects over 1,000 acres of island and surrounding coral reefs, supporting a diverse range of wildlife including endangered sea turtles and migratory birds. Visitors can spot the critically endangered Puerto Rican nightjar, a bird found only in this specific habitat.
Höjdpunkter: A standout feature is the refuge's role in conserving leatherback sea turtles that return annually to nest on its sandy beaches, creating a rare opportunity to see this in action. Snorkeling reveals vibrant coral reefs teeming with colorful fish, offering an underwater spectacle few other Caribbean sites can match.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy water shoes for rocky snorkeling spots and beach walks.
- Bring a waterproof camera to capture underwater scenes and night turtle nests.
- Avoid weekends to experience quieter trails and less crowded beaches.
- Use reef-safe sunscreen to protect coral and marine life while enjoying the water.
