While tourism is not highly developed, visitors can appreciate the natural beauty and tranquil environment. Accessibility can be challenging due to limited infrastructure, and a guided visit is advisable to navigate the area and learn about the local ecology. Check for seasonal accessibility as the rainy season may affect travel. Costs are relatively low, primarily covering transportation and local guide fees. A typical visit can range from a half-day to a full day depending on activities such as bird watching or small boat tours. Solo visits are possible but less recommended due to the remoteness and potential language barriers.
