Step-by-step itinerary
Visit sanctuary and beach time
- Visit monkeys and sloths sanctuary
- Take memorable pictures with animals
- Spend two hours at West Bay beach
The experience
The sanctuary is built around close encounters with monkeys and sloths in a safe setting where you can photograph them and watch their behavior without the stress of tracking them in the wild. A private guide leads you through, explaining what you're seeing and helping you frame shots. Because the group is just your party (family, friends, whoever you've brought), there's no waiting for strangers or keeping pace with a larger crowd.
After the sanctuary, the tour moves to West Bay Beach for two hours or more of swimming and beach time. The beach is private, so you're not fighting for sand or dealing with vendors. The air-conditioned vehicle picks you up from your hotel or wherever you're staying and handles all the transport between stops, so you don't navigate the roads yourself. Your guide can also take you to other destinations you choose if you'd rather swap the beach for something else.
What’s included
- Entrance fee to the sanctuary.
- air-conditioned vehicle for transport between stops.
