Have you gone more than once? It was quite the experience driving there in a 1999 Jeep Cherokee with original shocks. We stayed on the Atlantic side and it was very rocky so we didn't really go in the water there. We did go swimming on the Caribbean side and it was very tranquil. I enjoyed it but I am not sure I need to do it twice.I'm guessing it's just whatever needed to be culled that week. Regardless, I'll never buy meat there again.
