    The second most popular beach destination. (To view in passing)
  4. Pass by
    The tour begins when we pick up the traveler/s at their accommodation. From there, we make our way to the Blanchisseuse Spring Bridge which is the start of the Paria Hike.
  5. Pass by
    See the Spring bridge, and the Marianne river which flows under it. (Option to take photos)
  6. 15m
    Turtle Rock - Impressive rock formation offering views of the sea and coastline. (To take photos and listen to the sound of waves crashing)
  7. Pass by
    Paria Arch - Large coastal Arch. ( Option to take photos or view in passing)
  8. Pass by
    While at this end, we stop briefly to admire the Paria Arch. Next, we walk the length of the sandy Paria Bay (~800m) as we need to get to the other side of the bay. Beautiful beach. (To walk across and enjoy)
  9. Paria Falls
    30m
    We stop and enjoy Paria Waterfall for about 30min - swim, take photos, and relax.
    After this, we must walk all the way back to the beginning along the same trail. Hence, the entire hike involves about 16km of hiking.
  10. 40m
    On the drive back (approx. 1hr), I give the option to stop off at the popular Maracas Bay to have the famous Bake & Shark or some other local food (approx 40min). Since this is an option, this additional expense will be covered by the traveler. However, although it is an option, most people do opt for it as they are definitely hungry after the hike.
