Two wheels, one loop
Scooter rental
Ask us about renting a scooter to ride the island loop — licence and helmet are not optional.
The short version
A scooter turns San Andrés into a very big playground: the whole loop, the west-side pools and a sunset stop on the same day. It also turns a sloppy rider into a hospital visit, so we’re boring about the rules. Bring a licence that covers motorbikes, wear the helmet, and treat the wet road around San Luis like it’s made of soap.
