Seasonal information

Between April and December, there may be an increased presence of seaweed and algae due to wind, temperature, and currents. In particular, an increased occurrence of brown algae is often observed in the Caribbean during this period, affecting the beach and sea. The hotel management and local authorities are, of course, endeavoring to clean affected beach sections in cooperation with municipal administrations. However, this requires the use of appropriate equipment, which may generate some noise.
