Overview
You will begin this magical mangrove adventure with a drive for about 20 mins over the mountains to the east end of the island to the secluded private estate where the mangroves are. After a safety briefing, we will begin to paddle our way over a gorgeous coral reef.
After a short while, we will reach the entrance of the mangrove lagoon - which is another world completely! This area is known as the "nursery of the sea" and we will learn why the creatures that reside here are so essential to coral reefs, oceans and even human beings.
As we meander our way through the nooks and crannies of the mangrove forest, we will be on the lookout for wildlife. Because the water is crystal clear and fairly shallow, its easy to spot our sea creature friends - baby stingrays and sharks, barracuda, trunk fish, turtles, jellyfish and more can be seen.
There is no hurry as we explore the mangroves, so feel free to grab snorkel gear and jump in the water at any point during the tour to get a close-up view of the abundant life beneath the water. A short paddle upwind will bring us back to the starting point.
