Stop 3

Get to know the enchanted cays of the east coast of Puerto Rico and enjoy the views of our natural treasures beginning with the El Yunque National Forest and all of its wonders while also admiring the intricate and quiet beauty of the east coast of this amazing island. Our usual destination is Icacos Island, where the catamaran or power boat stops so you can disembark and find yourself in knee-deep crystal-clear waters. Guests can swim or practice snorkeling from the shore, walk the white sand beach, or just relax and sunbathe at their leisure.

We then move onto our second stop where the vessel moors for about one hour over a living coral reef. Here, you have the opportunity to snorkel over the reef and view spectacular tropical fish and live coral formations for unforgettable Puerto Rico snorkeling. Depending on water conditions, our captain may take you to Tortugas Reef, Lobos Reef, Punta Aguila or Palominitos Reef instead.
