If you want to experience crystal-clear waters and spot sea turtles, Tres Trapi is one of the best snorkeling spots on the island.

There's no actual beach at Tres Trapi, but you'll find rocky stairs leading into the water, sometimes with sandy areas. The real reason to visit Tres Trapi is the incredible underwater life. Just a few meters away from the beach, as you swim towards the sea grass, you'll have the chance to encounter various sea turtles.

Remember to be respectful of the sea turtles. Give them enough space, avoid chasing them as they come up for air, and never touch or feed them. This way, we can continue enjoying these beautiful creatures on our island for a long time. At Tres Trapi, you'll also find signs with instructions on how to swim with the turtles. The same rules apply to other wildlife like sea stars.
