About This Tour
Join me, naturalist & biologist ecotour guide @stacebird, on a kayak tour out of Isla Colón's Saigon Bay. We'll explore various tropical ecosystems & learn their vital importance to heathy oceans & our planet's future. We'll have opportunities to see sloths, a variety of tropical birds, perhaps even some monkeys while learning about the tropical ecosystems in which they occur. Leisurely kayak to a mangrove island for a snorkeling adventure. We will go slow, taking in the rich complexity of the reef as I point out & identify marine species & the fascinating behavior of reef life. We'll "hop" back into the kayaks; upper body strength is necessary for the this part of the excursion. If guests choose to forego snorkeling, we still can still see the beauty of the reef as we glide over it on our kayaks. Next we'll to a couple of peaceful canals & find ourselves in a cathedral-like mangrove tunnel & learn the vital importance of mangrove ecosystems while keeping an eye out for wildlife.
