Every day is filled with new sites and sounds. When visiting nature in the raw, you never know what a day may bring. The journey is flexible and can be changed as needed.
When to go? It is a year round destination. The busiest months are December and March.
For a great family experience, there is a luxury villa with 5 bedrooms/7 baths, a private chef, waiter/bar man/ maid service and private naturalist guide. Private boat visits to islands, swimming pool and jacuzzi make this the best family vacation. The island visits are different from above as you go out and back each day. But the wildlife experience is fabulous.
