National Marine Park. Take a day-tour to Islas Zapatilla on a day when weather is clear and waves are not choppy. The tour takes you first to Dolphin Bay, then to Cayo Coral for snorkeling and a restaurant over the water, then it goes to Islas Zapatilla, which is a marine reserve. No hotels, restaurants or bars are on this island. Pristine and pure. Pick up your trash and take it with you! Avoid single-use plastic to save our precious marine life.

The Oreba Chocolate Tour, gives you an insider's view on how the local indigenous cultivate and process cacao. It's truly fascinating and you'll never eat chocolate again without appreciating how much work goes into it. This can be a rainy day activity, since you are in the jungle. Bring shoes that can handle mud.
