Throttle forward and the island opens: red dust kicks under knobby tires, cicadas press against the canopy and a riverbed dares you to cross. On this half-day loop you’ll pilot a fully automatic ATV along winding jungle tracks, climb to a hilltop for wide Caribbean views, then slow down to meet the animals at a small family-run eco-park before finishing on horseback along a shaded trail and cool waterline.
