Island Circuit by Private Beach Buggy with Local Guide

Command a beach buggy around the entire 27 km perimeter of San Andrés with a knowledgeable local guide riding shotgun. From the 'blowhole' sea arch to Morgan's Cave and La Piscinita's natural pool, every viewpoint is yours to savour at your own unhurried pace.

What to expect

Hop into an open-air buggy and trace the coastal road clockwise, pausing at the dramatic blowhole where Atlantic swells cannon through a sea arch in a curtain of spray. A short hike leads into Morgan's Cave, the legendary pirate haunt where Henry Morgan supposedly stashed his treasure, its chambers eerily lit by bioluminescent algae. La Piscinita — a sheltered natural tidal pool on the island's calmer west side — invites a spontaneous swim among reef fish. The guide winds up the journey with a stop at a seafront spot for fresh coconut water straight from the husk.

Good to know

Book the private version directly to avoid sharing the experience with strangers. Depart early (8–9 am) to reach Morgan's Cave before the day-trip boats arrive. The full loop takes 2.5–3 hours; factor in swim stops and you'll want 4 hours to do it justice. Closed-toe shoes recommended for the cave walk.
