The more adventurous can kayak, hike or rent a horse (optional) to a refreshing waterfall, or take a guided tour through the village.

Our last stop is the tropical beach of Majahuitas. This pretty cove is one of the most alluring in all of the Pacific with white sands and crystal clear waters backed by swaying palms.
