Summary:
An absolute don't miss! A local treasure about an hour and a half from San Juan. Well worth the trip, the guides are very knowledgeable and the location is just stunning. We saw over 20 petroglyphs 2 small water falls and got to jump from cliffs ranging from 5-30ft. Water is deep in jumping spots and shallow in other parts perfect to catch a breath and soak! The water was crystal clear and the temperature was perfect on a hot day. Make the journey ill definitely be back
