Turtle Eco Tour on Stand-Up Paddleboards or Kayaks into the National Marine Park

Highlights

  • Paddleboards navigate places too shallow and narrow for boats

  • Watch for wildlife in a thriving coastal environment

  • A focus on plants and animals makes this ideal for nature lovers

Summary

Start with a basic lesson in stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), learning to balance on your board, steer, and maneuver before launching your board into a shallow estuary lined with mangroves. Paddle alongside the SUP guides on your way to a mangrove island and then discover hidden paths that lead into the island interior. Watch for eagle rays, turtles, conch, and starfish, as well as coastal bird, including cormorants, egrets, and pelicans; the food-rich mangroves attract a wide range of species. Advanced SUPers can brush up their paddling techniques with tips from the guides, or you can just soak up the sun, sea, and quiet coastal environment before returning to shore.
