Description
Jiquilisco Bay is an UNESCO Biosphere reserve. It is El Salvador´s largest and most important wetland and the largest mangrove estuarine system in Northern Mesoamerica, composed of mangrove forests, estuaries, sand bars, beaches, 27 islands of varying size, fresh water lagoons and seasonally flooded forests.
Its 637 square kilometers, represent a transit point to at least 87 species of migratory birds, and four species of sea turtles nest and feed within the bay. A monkey community is also in our itinerary. We will walk through a forest until we reach their home. After calling their names, the monkeys come down the trees and interact with the visitors.
We will reach a private marina, where we will enjoy lunch overlooking the bay. Then we will take a boat tour to an unspoiled pristine beach within the bay and mangroves. The marina also offers optional activities such as kayaking.
Free time to enjoy facilities.
