    Simply spectacular and very beautiful; the contrast of the white sand with the turquoise sea is unforgettable. The view was excellent: always as a group we were watching to keep the beach clean. Walking through the mangrove and seeing marine iguanas completed the experience.

    This was a very informative tour. We had a wonderful time learning so much about all of the plants and animals that we passed while we walked. It was a lot of walking, but we were prepared with good shoes, so it was not too strenuous. We are in “average shape” and the walking was a little tiring but not too much and was definitely worth everything we got to see. Our guide, Juan, was very knowledgeable and very patient with our millions of questions. He was funny and it was a lot of fun to spend time with him. The beaches and landscapes were very beautiful, and it was a treat to encounter so many animals such as iguanas, pelicans, and other birds and lizards in the wild.

    It's a scam, TURTLE BAY Beach IS FREE AND PUBLICLY ACCESSIBLE, just like CHARLES DARWIN STATION, IT'S FREE TO ENTER. There are those who charge $10 per person to enter and you MUST NOT PAY, you can even report that if they want to charge you. Even if you don’t want to walk to Tortuga Bay, you only pay for yourself to go by boat, round trip is at $20 or walking is done 1 hour per route (bicycles or cars are not allowed in, the road is very narrow and some animals could hurt if they go by bike). I've been there many times, I've seen how they charge for that and it's not fair that they do.
