Explore
Active kayak trips navigate the tightest sections of the estuary closer to the water line.
Paddling gives you a low-to-the-water perspective of the 600-hectare mangrove ecosystem. You explore narrow waterways where larger motorboats cannot fit.
Because navigation depends on the high ocean tides, your departure time changes daily. Expect to spend about two hours actively paddling on the water.
1.5 hoursKeep your voice low
These shallow, quiet tributaries branch off from the main river. They are inaccessible to larger motorboats, offering a closer look at the ecosystem. Keep your voice low to avoid scaring off less habituated wildlife like herons and monkeys.
30 minsLook for juvenile fish
Red mangroves feature stilted prop roots that drop directly into the brackish water. You paddle right alongside these intricate structures. Peer into the water around the roots to spot juvenile fish and crabs seeking shelter.
