Add to that a number of activities that includes world-class windsurfing and sailboarding, fishing, kayaking, bird watching and more, and you have the makings for a spectacular destination.

Traveler Comments
Alejandro was a great guide for an intense bike ride. Scenery along the ride was great. Lunch was fantastic. Support vehicle was comforting and helpful when one of us got a flat tire. Don't recommend this bike ride for beginners (it was 50km and a hilly route).
LOVED LOVED OUR GUIDES! GREAT GUYS!
