This is a self-exploration opportunity and advanced reservations are not required.
While there are no organised excursions available, one or two English-speaking guides from the mainland are available for directions and to provide information.
After tendering ashore off the island in Cumberland Bay, visitors will be attended by the tour staff for a brief historical presentation of the Islands. The tour staff will be on hand to direct you towards the walking paths. The small settlement of San Juan Bautista is only a 2-minute walk from the pier. The main square is located approximately 60 metres beyond the square should you wish to visit.
Put on your walking shoes and explore San Juan Bautista village and the surrounding area. Visit the National Forestry Corporation, featuring unique specimens of plants endemic to the archipelago, can be reached via a 15-minute walk. For more avid walkers, attractions may include the lighthouse at the northern part of the bay, where remnants can be seen of a battle during the World War I, and the Santa Barbara Fortress, built by the Spanish as defence against the English corsairs in the 18th century. But most of all, going ashore means to delight in the stunning landscape and the amazing vegetation.
