Isla Pelícano
In the Guna language: Gorginega
Isla Pelícano belongs to Cayos Limones, inside the Guna Yala comarca. 3 tours in our catalogue name it, from $135 per person.
Gorginega. It sits on the edge of Cayos Limones, and that position puts it both in its own group's routes and in those crossing west.
Gorginega in Guna. It sits on the edge of Cayos Limones, and that position explains why it appears in three tours that are nothing like each other.
Two belong to it alone, both at $135, and they sell different things about the same place: the Casa de Papel Tour, built around the wreck sunk near the shore, and the Sunset and Snorkelling one, which stretches the afternoon in the water instead of splitting it between stops. The third is the $149 VIP Day, where Pelicano is one stop of three alongside Perro Chico and Diablo, plus the visit to the Guna community.
So the question here is not what it costs — two of the three cost the same — but what you want to do: the wreck, the sunset, or several islands.

Which islands share its itinerary
- Isla Perro Chico (Assudub Bipii) A small cay in Cayos Limones, the group closest to the port. Its Guna name is Assudub Bipii, and there is a Perro Grande that is not the same island.
- Isla Diablo (Niadub) Niadub in Guna. It sits in Cayos Limones, a few minutes by boat from Perro Chico, which is why almost no itinerary visits it alone.
