Upon reaching the calm waters of La Barrigona, our guests will be able to jump in for a swim or take in the stunning natural beauty of the rainforest! Our second stop will be a waterfall which is a natural rock waterslide. Climb the face and enjoy an exhilarating slide or comfortably watch on from afar!
As we exit El Yunque we will wrap up our day at the famous Luquillo Beach and Los Kioskos. Experience culture and the essence of Puerto Rico with amazing food, drinks, and music at this local hang out! (Lunch not included, please bring cash).
Adam Markel
Dinner Keynote Speaker
Adam Markel, bestselling author, keynote speaker and resilience researcher, guides individuals and organizations to tap the power of resilience to master the challenges of constant change.
With 18 years as a trial attorney building a multi-million dollar enterprise and 10 years as the CEO of a leading personal development and business training company, Adam has much to share about resilience, culture and change. Yet, some of his most enduring lessons came from his years as an ocean first responder – a life and death environment where Adam learned the importance of cultivating high performance capacity and impeccable teamwork.
In his latest book, Change Proof, Adam shows how those principles of resilience are equally relevant today for any business that wants to move beyond managing change to actively embracing it and using times of uncertainty, crisis, and chaos to create opportunities and stimulate individual and team growth.
