Urraca Private Island

A young nurse shark visiting our island💘 These bottom dwellers love shallow waters and mangrove islands, where they can find most of their favorite foods: sea snails, crustaceans, mollusks, octopus, stingrays, and small fish. Their small mouths don’t allow them to consume large fish, so mostly they suck pray right into their mouths. They are very socially advanced, can live between 25 to 35 years, are nocturnal (only very active at night) and usually sleep/rest during the day. Unfortunately nurse sharks are under threat from humans (commercial fishing) due in part to their docile nature, which makes them easy to trap. They don’t present any threats to humans, and there has NEVER been a recorded human fatality caused by a nurse shark in history. When was the last time you saw a nurse shark from this close in the wild without even having to get in the water? Encounter diverse #UrracaWildlife beauties during your stay with us!

This is the eco-friendly destination you’ve been looking for 😉 Urraca is a 100% sustainable island built among red mangrove trees in the middle of the ocean 🏝

Love is like the wind, you can’t see it but you can feel it 💕

Nature always wears the colors of the spirit 💖🌞💚
