We were the first ones on the island the day we visited. Not even the cashier was there to charge us admission. As the island is on the east side, it gets the morning sun, which illuminates the myriad colors of the reef and lagoon. It was spectacular — especially since we were solo. The admission is for the full day, so if you do a full day boat tour (as we did) we started and ended the trip there - our boat captain dropped us off around 330 for 1.5 hours of sunbathing on the well-maintained dock steps from the lagoon. It gets popular in the afternoons with kids and locals and the food/beverages were sold out and closed by the time we arrived around 330, so plan accordingly (no water to purchase).

Beautiful place to go. Water is a little aggressive so it is important to follow instructions (stay within the swimming area). The water is absolutely beautiful and very warm. There were lockers to keep the belongings. Food was also fabulous (fried red snapper was the best of all 4 fish).

An absolute must if you go to San Andres! Take the Satena flight over and visit this less visited tropical paradise! Cangrejo Cay is absolutely beautiful!!!????????The snorkeling was fantastic and the views breathtaking!! Go earlier in the day as it tends to get more crowded in the afternoon.

The san luis beach is a bit more off the grid than the main beaches since its on the other side of the island so you can get a bit more privacy here. The beaches are always white and the water has different tones of blue. This place is great for picture taking and getting into the water.
