The Park has a great many natural environments that make it one of the most important areas for ecotourism in Colombia; for example, its beautiful white-sand beaches, mangrove coastal forests, coral reefs and the extensive seagrass prairies around the islands.

Research and Environmental Education

The exuberant nature of the protected area and its state of conservation make it an ideal place for scientific research. Additionally, as in all the parks with ecotourism, education institutions carry out environmental education activities in the park, as do the park rangers who speak to the visitors about the Park, its conservation objectives and ecotourism services and activities.

Bird Watching

Colombia is the country with the most bird species in the world, which is why it is a touristic destination for amateur and professional bird watchers. Over 60 species of birds have been recorded for the Park, 31 of which are marine birds such as cormorants, seagulls, frigate birds and pelicans. There are also colonies of herons and ibis.

Fauna and Flora Observation

Lagoon complexes, rivers and the Caribbean Sea converge in the protected area and produce a combination of fresh water and seawater creating landscapes and habitats for numerous species to admire and contemplate. It is a migration corridor for sea turtles such as the leatherback, loggerhead, Hawksbill and Green sea turtles.
