Take a hike to Talava Arches and witness the ocean framed by three natural limestone formations. A relatively short walk (about 30 minutes) takes you through tropical rainforest to reach this attraction. With any luck, you'll spot humpbacks circling offshore. Wear shoes with good traction to navigate the rocky, steep slope. If you time your visit with low tide, you can snorkel in the rock pool.

Lovely A rocky 20min walk (bring covered walking shoes) brings you to a small cave where you will need to climb down a rock face using guide ropes. Then the whole thing opens up to a great view of the arches and surrounding rock pools which sparkle cyan in the sun. Best to go at low tide as you won't see much other wise

After a short walk you reach an amazing view, great for pictures and a few good swimming spots to cool off. Would recommend for the view alone.
