What to expect

The kayaks will be ready and waiting in the mouth of the river where you will be provided instructions for a safe take off.  You will paddle along the river on this exciting kayak safari tour through the narrow canals.  You'll see many different bird species and watch for colorful fish jumping through the water.  Up above in the mangrove trees you will have the chance to see monkeys and iguanas.

After paddling about an hour, we will stop and walk through the forest with your guide for a deeper explanation of the local flora and fauna, specifically the famous local Guanacaste trees, Costa Rica's National tree.  You will hear sounds of the local howler monkeys and there is a chance you will see them swing through the tree tops above!  Keep an eye out for other critters such as crabs and butterflies!

The Kayak estuary tour is 2 hours and includes Transportation, Safety Gear, Bottled Water, snack, and Bilingual Guide.
