The reef offers 35 species of coral, including elkhorn, fan and brain coral. There are also other types of marine life, such as sea urchins, moray eels, turtles, lobsters and sharks. In total, this incredibly important reef houses 128 species of algae, 44 species of crustaceans, 140 species of molluscs and 123 species of fish including: Elkhorn, Brain Coral, Squirel Fish, Jewel Fish, Box Fish, French Angel, Queen Angel, Frog Fish, Butterfly Fish, Sting Ray's, Sea Urchins, Fire Coral, Leather Coral, Sea Fan, Turtles, Sea Morays and Snappers.
The tour starts off with a boat ride to the snorkel destination where you will enjoy hours of snorkeling the beautiful coral reef. For your safety, we have a snorkeling trail that consists of a 400 meter line with white buoys. There is a drop off where can you do some free diving. With some luck, you may even see a turtle!
We provide a tasty snack of fresh fruit and beverages. Once re-energized, you have the choice to return by boat, or hike 3.5 km (1 hr 45 min) through Cahuita National Park back to Cahuita Center. This offers a wonderful opportunity to spot some of the wildlife such as iguanas, agoutis, sloths as well as parrots, toucans and a wide variety of birds. The white face monkeys are very social and may come right up to you expecting to be fed.. But be warned - it's prohibited to feed them.
