Things to do in La Parguera

Six ways to get out on the water

Boat tours

Boat trips that visit one or more cays. It's the most common way to see the area on a first visit. Many include time to swim and a set return time.

Bioluminescent bay

Night trips to the bay, by boat or by kayak. See the full guide →

Kayaking

Paddle through the mangrove channels, where the water is very still. Some operators have clear-bottom kayaks.

Snorkeling & diving

The outer reefs are the favorite spots. There are dive centers with gear and certification courses.

Boat rentals

If you have experience handling boats, you can rent one and move between the cays at your own pace.

Private charters

Charters for groups, with a custom route and schedule. A good choice for families or celebrations.

Before you book

• Ask whether the price is per person or per boat.
• Confirm how long you'll spend at each cay and when pickup is.
• Check whether snorkel gear, life jackets and shade are included.
• Ask what happens if the weather forces a cancellation.
• Bring cash: not every operator takes cards.
