“Felt like a local for a couple hours”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 2, 2012

My wife and I were the only travelers that day so we had two guides a bit our junior with us. They were really cool and we kind of just hung out with them rather than they being guides to serve us. The mangroves are awesome with so much wildlife - sharks, rays, starfish and conch.

“Iguana Island”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed July 31, 2012

Interesting experience, especially for kids. My 5 year old loved seeing the Iguanas. I on the other hand was not overly impressed. You basically walk a small wooden walkway ( 150 yards at most all the way around) and look at iguanas. It would be nice to have some signs that would tell you about the creatures, their habits,life cycle etc.. and it would be really nice not to see all the booze at the guard's post ;(

“Visit the Iguanas”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 10, 2012

The island is very beautiful from the water. Once the boat docked we were told the iguanas were up behind the beach. This is a very natural spot and it seems quite arid and unusual for the Caribbean. We didn't see any iguanas but, many others on the tour did. We were more fascinated by the beach here watching the stingrays swimming up almost onshore. It was quite an isolated but beautiful spot.
