Overview

Paddle through the mangroves where the landscapes and the wild life are the main attractions. Choose between 2 options, a 3 hours / 8km guided tour for begginers and enjoy the birdwatching (flamingos*, ospreys, ibis, herons, egrets and much more). The first part is a 1km trip close to the sandbar, then you’ll go to the entrance (Rio Kuka) to start a 6km circuit into the hearth of the mangroves channels. At the middle of the circuit there´s a break for hydratation. At this point you can choose to head back or continue through the experienced kayakers route (5km more), paddling until the end of the chanels where are a beautiful unspoiled beach, Playa Woow. Both options includes a round transfer from your hotel, water and snacks. *The pink flamingos normally visit the island during Summer-Winter time.

Great private mangrove tour with David

Published on Jun, 2024

Great tour with David. No one else showed up, so it was a private tour; that was a treat. David was a phenomenal guide and gave us a lot of information about the birds and animals and the mangrove ecosystem. We saw flamingos, ospreys, ibises, and more. Going in was with the current, so we came out against it, which was challenging, but we did it. Highly recommend this tour and David.

Great time!

Published on Dec, 2022

We saw 2 crocodiles; tons of birds and the peace and quiet. Alberto was great and so friendly. Would recommend especially if you like birds, animals, and kayaking.

A tour worth taking

Published on Jul, 2022

We had a magical time, learned something new, and got some exercise. Our guide was as entertaining as he was informative.

AMAZING

Published on Mar, 2022

This tour was amazing! David is a wonderful tour leader--so knowledgeable and passionate about the local ecosystem. Be prepared to kayak for a while, but the tour leaders were always checking in and open to taking breaks when anyone needed. Wear lots of sunscreen. We saw lots of cool wildlife--crocodiles, sting rays, and so many beautiful birds.

Very nice Kayaktour ! quite with no people in the Mangroves ! only the sound of nature !

Published on Jan, 2022

We had a very nice kayaktour in the mangroves. Entering the mangroves at 9am when everybody gets out on that time ! So we were all alone with our guide David ! Very quite tour, relaxing with the sounds of nature ! I would recommend it to everybody !
