About This Tour

Escape to Isla Yansailadup, one of the most beloved islands in the San Blas Lemon Keys. Perfectly located, it’s surrounded by must-see attractions like the Natural Pool, Isla Perro’s sunken shipwreck, Arena Blanca sandbank, and Isla Chichime. What sets this tour apart is the welcoming Kuna family who host you, offering delicious fresh meals, clean beaches, and warm hospitality that our guests consistently love. You’ll stay in a private bedroom inside the main lodge (note: ceilings are open for ventilation), with shared bathrooms and showers a short walk away. Accommodations are simple and rustic, closer to camping than luxury, but the unforgettable setting, cultural encounters, and island-hopping adventures make it truly special. With its central location, authentic vibe, and breathtaking surroundings, this 3-day San Blas experience is the perfect way to discover paradise. ✨

PLEASE BE PREPARED FOR A 2.5 to 3 HOUR CAR JOURNEY EACH WAY OVER CURVY ROADS! THERE IS ALSO A 25-30 MINUTE BOAT RIDE TO YOUR FIRST ISLAND WHICH CAN GET QUITE BUMPY AND WET. We feel that the islands are worth the long drive, but some travelers have complained about the drive and the fast boat ride from and to the port. While we strive to provide our guests the best service and an unforgettable experience in San Blas, we are not responsible for road and ocean conditions, and we would like you to be aware of this fact :)
