Mornings include yoga outside in a large beach gazebo with soft Caribbean breezes. Hiking destinations include a variety of gorges and falls, where hot volcanic mineral water mixes with cooler water springs to create natural Jacuzzis. A three-hour uphill hike takes you to the rim of a 4,700-foot volcano, through the Valley of Desolation, then on to the world’s second-largest boiling lake. You can dive in shallow hot springs, where water bubbles from underneath the sand and sea ledges, or swim in a subterranean river that runs through a cave, then into a mountain.
Afternoon activities include snorkeling, scuba, windsurfing, sailing, tennis, rowboating and shopping for artifacts.
