While not a Big Five destination, Isla Santay offers delightful wildlife encounters. We love spotting the resident iguanas basking in the sun and the variety of birdlife, especially water birds along the mangroves. Keep an eye out for howler monkeys too; their calls are unmistakable.

We've always felt perfectly safe exploring Isla Santay. The island is a protected nature reserve with well maintained paths and a small, friendly community.
