Overview

1 hour 45 minutes

Mobile ticket

Experience a 1 hour and 45 minute guided boat journey through the Río Espíritu Santo, one of Puerto Rico’s most biodiverse river systems. This scenic expedition takes you through lush mangrove-lined waterways and calm estuarine waters where freshwater meets the Atlantic.

Often referred to as the “Amazon of Puerto Rico,” this is a one-of-a-kind river experience offering rare access to a protected natural corridor. Guests may encounter birds, iguanas, wild ducks, turtles, and—if luck is on our side—manatees, caiman, and other coastal species.

Along the route, pass the ruins of an old sugarcane train bridge, a glimpse into the island’s agricultural past. Travel is aboard a comfortable pontoon boat with a maximum of 15 guests. A complimentary homemade empanadilla and beverage are included from our charming café.

Free parking available. Accessible by Uber. Bilingual staff (English & Spanish). Life vests - children 12 and under must wear them, adult vests available for emergency use only.

Guests must be able to board and disembark the pontoon boat with minimal assistance. We welcome guests who use wheelchairs, provided they are able to transfer on and off the boat with assistance. Wheelchairs cannot be accommodated on board. This is a nature-based river experience with limited accessibility due to the boarding process.

This experience is best suited for guests in good general health who are comfortable boarding a boat and remaining seated for the duration of the tour.
