Can I have this experience the day of my arrival?

We must consider that the departure of this experience is only in the morning because in the afternoon the winds are usually very strong, for this reason

What is the best time to visit this destination?

The dry or windy season is the best (April - November) are the ideal months since the presence of rain is not so constant, which allows us to enjoy a calmer experience when we visit the quarries.

How many people participate in the service?

Regularly, in our experience, between 12 to 15 people participate, the group can naturally be smaller, however it is the average amount. We ensure that it is not so big with the intention that the experience is personalized.
