About This Tour
Explore the wetlands of the Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in a beautiful and environmentally respectful journey. Meet your guide and group at the dock (3.2 km inside the reserve 2 miles ) where the kayaks are waiting to start the adventure. We kayak in sit-inside kayaks (tandem or single) for about 2 or 3 hours to show you a good route and visit the Pirates Island “ Frigate Birds” Starting times vary seasonally, as the entire adventure is accommodated around the sunset or we can arrange a different time to avoid the peak heat hours. Make sure you bring your bottle of water, sunglasses, hat, light comfy clothes (long sleeve shirt to cover from the sun), swimsuit, towel, comfortable shoes, extra set of clothes for the end of the day, biodegradable eco-friendly sunscreen and mosquito repellent.
