Overview.

Glide with your kayak into beautiful mazes, wetlands, wildlife and Maya local history.

Experience the ancient trading routes by paddling among mangrove mazes and calm waters in the Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, one of the world’s most remote and exciting places. Sian Ka’an is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here we can freely enjoy nature, take pictures, watch the wildlife from up close and enjoy the moment. This is the best opportunity to get introduced to kayaking for first timers or experienced ones who want to explore the incredible natural wonders of this region.

Then, we immerse ourselves and in an open mangrove cenote, part of one of the world´s longest explored underwater passages.
