The reserve is home to manatees and over 66 species of birds both local and migratory, ideal for bird-watching.
Los Canales
The canals, "Los Canales", of la Parguera are formed by more than 30 cays and small "islotes", islets, mostly mangroves trees through which the canals now flow. These exotic canales are believed to be the work of the Taino Indians that lived in this region hundreds of years ago.
Los Cayos
There are 30 or so cays surrounded by shallow waters to form a natural pool in the middle of the ocean and the only accesses to these beautiful cays is by boat. The canals are teaming with tropical fish due to the constant flow of fresh filtered water that emanates from the mangroves. Thery are known for the herds of friendly manatees that visit this waters from time to time; seaturtles and dolphins are also frequent visitors of the area. Frequented by local and international tourists as well as Parguereños themselves these cays provide fantastic snorkeling and tuns of fun in the sun.Come on down and visit us; see and live the experience.
