Hacienda La Carrera in the 60s-70s included a protected, environmentally conscious zoo. After the land reform that took place in late 1979 many innocent animals were killed or sold. However, there was a community of cunning spider monkeys that managed to survive over the years. Today, much of the property at Hacienda La Carrera has been repurchased for agricultural use. Nevertheless, the purchasing company has gone to great efforts to purchase “green areas” with a strong commitment to preserve and protect the flora and fauna. As a result, native wildlife in the area has made an impressive comeback. The monkey population is also thriving, having reached close to 30. Spider monkeys are quite curious and fond of tourists. They will happily accept bananas from visitors and make for a wonderful experience.

It is impossible to resist this tour. Visit Don Miguel and his spider monkey sanctuary community. Bring along bananas to feed Pancho and Maria and see how this king of the bananas rejoices in his forest (El Nacascolo). This one is the last communities of spider monkeys that thanks to Don Miguel we have been able to protect. Highlight- Walk through the sugar cane fields and enclosed semi-tropical forests. Watch as “Miguel” calls them to your feet making it an awesome, close-encounter natural experience .   Opens daily: 8am-3pm

The visitor will be able to taste the fruit of cacao,  toast cacao after the drying process and back in our restaurant, you can taste a cup of hot chocolate (at breakfast, lunch or dinner time).  Value added tour: there are 2 days a week when a plantain plant is processing "big bananas" for exportation.  The colorful sceneries are picture-perfect.

<h3>About Isla Pajarito</h3>
<h3><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Isla Pajarito:</strong></span></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A strange and miraculous image, made of lead, is found on the main altar of the church of Santa Maria in Usulutan. The residents had a fisherman of the bayworking in the waters near Bird Island (Isla Pajarito) , when, suddenly, the sea was curled, the degree to wreck his boat. Such was the anxiety and fear that the fisherman invoked his salvation from San Antonio. When he awoke, he was in the Bird Island beaches and in his hand the saving image. From there, the man promised to be the protector of the small effigy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Then, when man and statue were called to the bedside of a sick, he healed them. This happened many times until the image was required by the church, but the man refused to surrender it, therefore, the police arrested him for the purpose of confiscating the image.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The fisherman handed over the image and was released. But, when he was among his people, he found, surprisingly, in their spritsail, the saint wrapped in a handkerchief. Since the news of this miracle ran, the faith of the population increased, so it was decided to celebrate the feast of San Antonio Pajarito each February 20.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">An afternoon on the island is a sight to reconnect with nature. This small space is one of the favorite places for the birds that inhabit the bay. So along with the sunset, Bird Island is wrapped with the presence and the unique melody of various species of birds. This destination is close to Punta San Juan.</p>
