My wife and I did the beach day trip to Icacos, and we had the time of our lives!!!
Gregory, our tour guide, was absolutely awesome! He was very attentive to us, and ensured we had a fantastic experience throughout, including the boat rides, time at the beach, nature hike, and snorkeling.
Moreover, my wife has some health and balance issues, and Gregory was very considerate and helpful with guiding her through some of the harder parts of the trail, as well as with the snorkeling. Despite her health issues, she was still able to experience those highlights of the day, due to a combination of her own strength and Gregory's help.
Boat rides: Really fun, short boat rides to and from Icacos, in a speed boat. You are able to stash things like beach chairs in the boat, which is very helpful.
Beach experience: Beautiful beach with extremely calm, pleasant waters (at least when we were there). The ocean waters almost felt like being a pool alongside the sand. Very interesting experience, and definitely a paradise. They also set you up with an umbrella and a cooler with refreshments (you are given the royal treatment!).
Nature hike: An optional activity, which was the highlight for us. This was the part of the trip we did not expect at all to enjoy as much as we did. Gregory provided lots of interesting facts along the way, and we saw a historic lime stone mine, crabs, and great views.
Snorkeling: Another optional activity. Nice snorkeling with easy views of some cool fish. Gregory is a certified diver and guided with great expertise.
This was a real highlight of our trip, and something we will remember forever!!!
