Insiders’ tips
- The rock seeps can get really wet for a long time after rain, so best to visit when it has been dry for a while.
- There is a hornet nest in the jungle on the far right. Be careful and watch where you stand and put your hands at.
- When you cross the freshwater, always remember that sometimes it can get high tide and might have to swim a little as the water can reach 2+ meters high.
