Kayak Camping on a Remote Uninhabited Tropical Island

Kayak Camping on a Remote Uninhabited Tropical Island

This is a beautiful Kayak Trek entirely inside the Golfo Dulce, the Only Tropical Fiord of the Pacific Coast of the Americas, an environment chosen by Humpback Whales for to deliver and stay with their Calves during July to September and again in January – February.

The variety of the ambient vary from dense Mangrove estuaries to Rocky coast, to small Island surrounded by Coral reef plates, to very deep water crowded of marine life that are the daily food of huge schools of Dolphins and Stenellae .

In this enchanted space, made of warm, calm waters and dense forested coasts, most of them part of Piedras Blancas Nat.l Park , we offer 3 full days of sea kayaking, mangrove exploration, bird-watching, whales-watching, farm life share, forest hike, snorkeling and fishing.

Camping along the coast and on desert small Islands, offer the opportunity of a total immersion in the deep Wildlife eco-system and a disconnection to the everyday Digital Era burden.

An experience Impossible to forget!
