Entering the caves. Fascinating to go inside the caves. It was a lovely day and perfect to be out getting a perfect view of the fort which cannot be seen any other way. Perfect for perspective.

Very pretty views but be aware just a boat ride, no information at all. Our driver spoke little English other guests interpreted for us.. We swam, would recommend towels. My family enjoyed it!

Lovely boat trip to the caves and around ortiga island with a really friendly crew. Check the swell before you go as it makes a huge difference to the overall trip

This was a wonderful boat trip. We were taken all around the island of Ortega. I highly recommend this tour operator, because even though we were the only people booked on this group tour, they went out on time and were very accommodating.
