KAYAKING ADVENTURE

We offer two short (three hours) routes and two departure times: 7 am and 2 pm. The Viva Verde route includes a walking tour of a private nursery established over 15 years ago, accessible only by boat. Your guides will identify local fruit and ornamental trees, and many species of orchids and bromeliads. Countless birds and butterflies can be seen here. This route also includes visiting a bird island with White Ibis and other species. The second route option travels through meandering channels and “tunnels” of overhanging vegetation until we reach the tranquil waters of the inner lagoon. We will visit isolated small mangrove cayes in the center of the lagoon where many species of birds nest.
