About Isla Bastimentos

Isla Bastimentos is a wilder, nature-focused sanctuary within the archipelago, encompassing the popular Red Frog Beach and the pristine, uninhabited islands of Cayo Zapatilla within Bastimentos National Marine Park. The island offers world-class snorkeling and scuba diving along vibrant outer coral reefs, trekking through coastal jungle paths, and relaxing on long stretches of golden sand littered with natural driftwood. Cayo Zapatilla's surrounding waters host abundant marine life, including sea turtles, rays, and tropical reef fish. Consulting tide charts is essential for planning day trips here: low tide creates ideal visibility and calm surface conditions for snorkeling the shallow reefs at Cayo Zapatilla and exposes wider beach area at Red Frog Beach, whereas high tide can push wave action up to the tree line and make boat landings over shallow reef passes more hazardous.
