We will row out from our beach club in Mismaloya and explore the Los Arcos marine park to observe marine life, birds, sunset or sunrise and Bioluminescence, and then row back to our beach club where we will have some amenities for you.

Great tour at Los Arcos

Published on Dec, 2024

Amazing experience at Los Arcos and Mismaloya! I took this tour with my parents and sister. Although ocean kayaking the water was very calm and the crew were very attentive to ensure everyone was considered while out in the water. We kayaked through a few caves, watched the sunset, and snorkeled in the bioluminescence before returning back to shore for hot cocoa and snacks.

Paddle boarding tour

Exceedingly friendly and knowledgeable staff who will do anything and everything to make your adventure safe and memorable. Our bioluminescent tour was fun, informative, wet and wild. The setting is spectacular. Please don’t forget to tip these hard working folks who treat you like family.

Worth the early morning!

Great communication, fantastic guides, extraordinary scenery and small group made for an awesome time.

Fun for everyone

Published on Nov, 2024

A great way for a family to have fun together, with everybody finding something to enjoy. Kids loved the sea life, and the rollercoaster experience of kayaking on the ocean. I quite enjoyed going through the caves and arches after dark - it was certainly something else! Bioluminescence was a nice plus but not the main draw for us.
