Reserva Natural Cabezas de San Juan (Para la Naturaleza)

This is a paved trail but sunny and long. It goes up to an incredible look out point and beach. A tour bus can take you out there if you plan ahead at times. Seriously stunning and I wouldn't miss if you're in the area. We drove 40 minutes to get here and it was well worth it! the Seven seas beach next to it is also lovely calm bay. Family friendly!

We booked an English speaking tour on a Saturday for Las Cabezas de San Juan Nature Preserve. It was excellent! Lucy Ann was our guide and she was very knowledgeable and passionate about the reserve, its ecosystems, and future. You ride on an open-air minibus on paved roads for most of the tour, but do get off to walk on a boardwalk, a beach, and into Las Croabas lighthouse as part of the tour. That was a bonus! They are still renovating it, but plan to open to the public April 2024. The public can use the trails here without a tour. This is a hidden gem and well worth the $12 entry.

It's truly beautiful but basically if you want to enter the park, you can only do so on a tour which is a total pain and needs booking in advance. Instead, we walked along the coastline and got to experience the stunning beaches without any reservations and for free! Found the most stunning, giant conch shells, fish and white sands, hidden coves and sunbathing spots. Only saw 2 people in 4 hours, and it was entirely rubbish free. Hard to find a decent spot to swim though, ocean ground is rocky and covered in slippery creepy seaweed.

Great and awesome tour and experience. Francisco is a great tour guide. You'll enjoy it a lot if you have the chance to have him assigned. Everyone should come here. Call and make your reservation today.
