Overview

This is the best adventure tour in all Puerto Rico as it completely avoids the tourist traps of the island & focuses exclusively on amazing places known only to locals. The 2 stops on this tour: Cueva del Indio & Charco Azul Canyon are both amazing yet completely different from one another. Cueva del Indio (Indian Cave) is a Seaside Cave that we go inside but to get there we have to walk over the breathtaking 7 arches rock formations. The views of the island and the sea from this point is something to wander at. Then we go into the cave itself which immediately transports you into the past, way before the era of Colombus. The Tainos carved the entire walls of the cave and we get to see it up close. Charco Azul is perhaps even more amazing. These are river caves, formed by the passage of a river beating against the stone for millions of years. We swim thru caves, hike and cliff jump at the end (optional). The entire day is filled with fun and much adventure.

What To Expect

Cueva del Indio

After we arrive in Arecibo we will ascend up the Famous 7 arches, where we will see gorgeous views, some of the best in the entire island, we will go into the Taino Cave. The entrance to the cave is a bit tricky but with our expert guidance, you will do it if in good shape. Once inside the cave you feel transported directly into the past. We will see over 100 Taino petroglyphs (Writing/drawing in stone) that are very well preserved despite their age. This place combines beauty, adventure, adrenaline and history all into one place. Our expertise will be indispensable for getting in and out of the cave. Come experience this once in a lifetime activity with us.

Charco Azul Canyon

The hidden, better, prettier cousin of El Yunque; Charco Azul Canyon offers all the breathtaking scenery, fun and adventure of El Yunque Rainforest without the crowds of people. This is truly a local gem. We hike down into the Canyon, where we will cross the river to get into 2 Caves. The caves are fascinating and we get to swim thru one and the other one has a waterfall where we get to cool off. the hike thru the canyon itself is super fun, just the right amount of challenge and absolutely gorgeous. After we exit the Canyon and Caves we go to what the locals actually refer to as Charco Azul: A natural pool of fresh blue turquoise water. There we will swim, hike a bit up some rocks and go Cliff jumping (optional of course). There are different jumps suitable for all bravery levels. Come experience this hidden gem with us as going with a guide on this tour is absolutely necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

(8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Cueva del Indio and Charco Azul Cave and Waterfall Adventure?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
