  • There is a lit of information available to read on your self guided tour through the facility, but nobody at each building to ask questions of. In short. No personal interaction except to be told...

  • Was super awesome. You need to have vehicle that can handle the very rough terrain. There are some great scuba diving sites but you must bring your own tanks and gear. You will probably only have time for two dives. You want to make sure that you bring food and water. A first aid kit would be a good idea. It's best to get to the park early so that you can have plenty of time to go through and enjoy the sites. There is a long and a short route through the national park. Be safe because if you need medical help it is a pretty good distance. The park staff does make a sweep at the end of the day to make sure that people have exited the park. The dive site Bise morto is an advanced site with some risk so be careful if you decide to do that one (also I'd recommend bringing a rope for that dive site because you have to lower your gear down. Most importantly have fun.
  • Beautiful. We couldn't spot any iguanas though. The roads inside are really bumpy and unpaved. So entering the park with a sedan or a hatchback could be pretty troublesome. We could surprisingly get through it with a sedan! For which I thank god. Taking a van there is very much advisable. The long route takes about 2.5hrs without stopping, while the shorter one takes about 1.5 hrs. Entry is only permitted here before 2pm.
