Do this mangrove kayaking tour!

The tour was great! Mega and Alex were the best. They took time to inform us of the flora and fauna as we came across it. They clearly care about the environment and protecting it. We saw an anteater (Alex got out of his kayak to take a closer photo without disturbing it), a boa, monkeys, raccoon, some birds, iguanas, JC lizards and various species of the mangroves. It was a beautiful day. Then they provided a delicious breakfast! Couldn’t be happier. Thank you!
