Big Pond Lagoon

Big Pond Lagoon is one of the most important natural treasures of San Andrés Islands, serving as the main freshwater source of the island. Located inland, away from the hustle and bustle of tourist areas, this lagoon offers a peaceful environment surrounded by lush vegetation. Its waters are home to various species of flora and fauna, including turtles, caimans, and endemic birds, making it an ideal place for nature lovers.

Exploring the surroundings of the lagoon is a unique experience, where visitors can enjoy a relaxing walk while admiring the tropical landscape. It is recommended to visit with a local guide who knows the area and can lead the way. Additionally, bringing insect repellent is essential, as the humidity in the area attracts mosquitoes.
