Local tips
- Wear sturdy shoes if you plan to hike to the lagoon, as the terrain can be rough and uneven.
- Bring your own snorkeling gear to fully appreciate the underwater marine life.
- Pack sunscreen, a hat, and plenty of water, as shade is limited and the sun can be intense.
- Consider visiting during the off-season (spring or fall) to avoid crowds and enjoy milder weather.
- If driving, a 4x4 vehicle is highly recommended due to the unpaved and bumpy roads leading to the lagoon.
