This is a small, family-run tour on the quiet south coast, timed for golden hour. You snorkel the reef first while the light in the water is still good, then paddle toward Spanish Lagoon's mangroves as the sky turns orange. Guides who grew up on this coast, single and double kayaks, and a relaxed pace far from the busy resort strip.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Prefer to skip the drive? Private round-trip pickup from your hotel or the cruise port is available for USD 110 per vehicle, settled with us on the day. Each vehicle seats up to 7 guests, so larger parties simply add a second vehicle. Meeting us at the Savaneta ramp is always free, and many guests enjoy the easy coastal drive. We will message you after booking to arrange whichever suits you best. If you choose pickup, your driver arrives about 45 minutes before the tour and will meet you at your hotel's main lobby, or just outside the cruise terminal. Keep your phone handy and we will let you know the moment your driver arrives.
Meet at the Mangel Halto Beach sign in Pos Chiquito, at the wooden stairs entrance to the beach. Your guide will be there with the kayaks. Arrive 15 minutes before the tour and look for the guide with the colorful ocean kayaks.
