Visitors can go on an adventure, hiking the river trails. They are easily hiked, each turn of the trail more beautiful than the last. You will see amazing rock configurations, shallow pools for wading, and small and large waterfalls. For those who prefer to ride, mules, donkeys, and horses complete with guides, or without, are available.
A day is also well spent at the “Playa”, a huge beach lined with restaurants and lounge chairs where one can swim, and meet people. For the socially adventurous, drop by the rockin’ jungle disco which happens twice a week. Local musicians also play at restaurants, and visiting musicians can join the spontaneous jams. Bring your instruments.
