    Great excursion, after a hostal takeover, we arrived at a fishing village and took a boat and crossed the mangrove. then we sinned with nets and set traps for crabs. Once the soaked peach is eaten in a typical beachside restaurant. We had a wonderful guide, Alfredo, with little care and speaking a perfect French. These explanations are great and thank you for all his advice

  • Mind blowing experience
