Botanical Gardens

About

The Botanical Gardens in San Andres house a diverse collection that showcases the rich biodiversity of the Archipelago, featuring endemic and non-native species. As you wander through this vibrant tapestry of life, the aromatic scents, harmonious bird songs, and the delicate fluttering of butterfly wings surround you, creating a serene escape from the usual Caribbean beachfront attractions. A highlight of the garden is the 12-meter-high lookout tower, which provides an unrivaled view of the island's panoramic beauty. The ecological path offers an enriching guided tour, revealing the secrets of the archipelago's flora and fauna. It's an opportunity to learn about how the islanders utilize these plants in their daily lives, fostering a deeper appreciation for the complex West Indian ecosystems and the need to conserve them. The gardens are open from Tuesday to Saturday: 9AM to 12PM, 2PM to 4:30PM, and Sundays and Holidays from 10AM to 12PM, 2PM to 4:30PM, with an entrance fee of $10.000CP.
