This aquatic adventure takes place off the coast of two gorgeous, brown sand beaches inside of Los Cóbanos Protected Area. First you'll take a stroll along "El Amor" or Love Beach to a point near the reef where you'll don your snorkel gear and enter the water. As you float gently in the warm waters of the Pacific, you'll be able to see myriads of beautiful tropical fish, starfish, sea urchins, snails and other marine species. Then it's off to "La Privada" or Private Beach where you'll be able to swim alongside impressive hard corals, a beautiful and tranquil experience. **All participants must be competent swimmers.**
