Wildlife includes monkeys, deer, iguanas, agoutis, large cats, andother mammals.
Sea turtles nest on Curu's beaches and tidal pools are rich in marine life. They attempt to return monkeys to the wild at Curu. The monkey in these pictures above had already been released to the wild and appeared to be doing well. Nearby Tortuga Island is a great place for sunbathing, snorkeling, swimming, picnicing. Fortunately, the weather was good all day, but unfortunately, it turned rainy so the evening beach barbecue was cancelled and we ate on the ship instead.
