Caribbean arrival
... pilot whale sighting and we were tailed for a couple of hours on one day by an un identified fish around 2 meters in length. Only saw 2 other yachts on the way over.

There were monkeys everywhere just walking past and dangling from trees. About 30 minutes into the tour one of the workers wheel barreled a bunch of food for all of the animals. They knew what time it was and every animal in the park showed up to eat. We would definitely recommend this tour, you will not be ...
