The best time to visit Sandoval Lake is during the dry season, which runs from April to October. The weather is more favorable for outdoor activities, and the visibility for wildlife watching is better, as animals tend to be more active and visible. However, the lake is beautiful to visit year-round, offering different experiences depending on the season.

For your 1-Day Sandoval Lake Tour, bring light, quick-drying clothing, sunscreen, insect repellent, a hat or cap, and comfortable shoes suitable for walking through the jungle. A camera is also a must to capture the stunning views and wildlife you’ll encounter. Don’t forget a water bottle to stay hydrated during the tour.
Yes! The 1-Day Sandoval Lake Tour is ideal for families, as the activities are relatively easygoing and suitable for children.
