Wonderful kayak tour of the mangroves

5.00This was a wonderful kayak tour of the mangroves in Puerto Jiménez. The company was very easy to communicate with and our guide, Tamar, was excellent – she taught us a lot about the different kinds of mangroves and animals who live in that ecosystem, and scratched herself up in order to get a very special and unusual fruit for us to eat from one of the plants along the banks. There was a cruise ship in Puerto Jimenez that day so we were in a large group and there were several other large kayaking groups in the mangroves – if you want a more intimate experience you might want to make sure you’re not going on a day when there’s a big cruise ship in the port.
Chill afternoon meeting all the colors of mangroves.

5.00Happy a lovely afternoon learning about the different types of mangroves. It was a very chilled relaxed paddle. Saw a few birds and some crabs but not much else in terms of wildlife. Also got to try the little fruit that was like a pineapple/banana/pear mashup. They were delicious. The fruit and water at the end was a nice treat. They use sit on kayaks so a sarong to cover your legs is helpful to keep you cooler and from frying your legs.
Unique Experience!

5.00We had a great time on this tour! I’ll admit I was a little skeptical going in but it turned out to be one of the best excursions we did in Costa Rica. Our guide Lino (I hope I’ve spelled it correctly) was awesome and just an all round good guy and interesting to talk to. I highly recommend this tour!
