About This Site

"Island of women" The beautiful reef begins just off of Isla's shore. The waters are calm and clear - perfect for all ages. The reef system is home to more than 65 species of stony coral, 350 species of mollusk and more than 500 species of fish. The island was also a favorite stopping place for pirates in the early 1800’s. The shallow lagoon on the mainland side of the island was a good place for sailors to sit out major storms.
