Tour the Only Sub Tropical Rainforest in the U.S. Forestry System!
Early Morning & Afternoon. The Best of Eastern Puerto Rico.
Having a knowledgeable guide to show you where mother nature and its wonders hide is worth the extra effort! Semi-Athletic tour.
Your day will start with a relaxing ride to the top of the National Rain Forest called the El Yunque. Enchanted Island Eco Tours guides will start your adventure into the interior of the rain forest with a short pre-walk orientation of the activity that you are about to embark on.
After our orientation, the group will sign waiver releases. The two guides are CPR and First Aid certified. You will be given a lightweight backpack (Backpacks, Towels must be returned at the end of the excursion) with the following inside:
• A clean dry towel.
• Snack package with cold bottle of water.
Walk along a natural trail into the forest and leave the world behind! The cool fresh air will take over your senses and the sights and sounds of the wind and water will relax your mind. Your guide will tell you about the natural area and its Flora & Fauna along the walk covering the following:
• Annual amounts of rain fall.
• Hurricanes and their role in the forest.
• Tree and plant life and their existence in the forest.
• Birds, Spiders, insects and small mammals that may be seen in the forest.
• Rivers, waterfalls and their aquatic life.
• Elevations and temperatures.
• History behind the rainforest.
As the walk progresses, we will see and hear many beautiful sights and sounds, including the crystal clear river that flows through the rocks and trees along the path. Once we have reached a fabulous waterfall called 'La Mina' falls, the group will stop and have the opportunity to relax under the majestic canopy of the rainforest as they enjoy thier snacks and cold water. Here your guides will give you a talk about the importance of rain forests, feel the cooling mist, enjoy photo time to gather your great shots, or just relax to sounds of rushing water passing through the rocks!
(Note, that Enchanted Island Eco Tours Inc. dose not promote "Swimming at La Mina as this trail system and La Mina see better than three quarters of the visitors which are estimated to be One Million visitors a year all of which want to take a swim (Saturation). Our true goal is to promote "Sustainable Tourism" and conserve our natural wonders. We are proud to promote "Enjoy La Mina from its Banks" thank you for your understanding!)
After our 30-minute break has ended, our group will start their return walk through the only sub tropical rainforest in the U.S. Forestry system and this natural wonder better known as El Yunque!
