It is an inhabited island, not a beach cay: a Guna community lives here, with cane houses raised almost over the water and wooden canoes moored at the door.

One tour in the catalogue names it, the $135 photography one, and the format answers what the island is: you walk through the community with time to photograph, and the day closes with a swim at the Natural Pool. It is not a beach stop with the community next door; it is the other way round.

Entering an inhabited island carries rules that do not apply on a deserted cay, and they are common sense: somebody's house is not a set.
