Detailed Description
Starting from the coast of the Caribbean city of Tela, you will go to the jungle and the beach at the same time, passing through two Garifuna Villages until you reach to Punta Izopo National Park.
When you arrive to the Park you start the journey, kayaking through the maze of mangrove creeks and rivers making up the Río Plátano and the Río Hicaque Lagoon. As you penetrate the mangroves, paddling through the narrow channels, there is an incredible atmosphere as the greenery closes in around you – and you realize how close you are to the sights and sounds of the tropics.
Butterflies such as the Blue Morph abound as well as an ample variety of water birds including kingfishers and herons. You will go back onto to the Ranger, for a visit to one of the Garifuna Villages were you can swim and have a typical lunch by the beach.
Note:
This tour is more of an activity, or an eco-adventure – although the amount of exertion is up to you. On the open stretches, you may go at a fair pace, and once in the narrow mangrove canals – just idle along. Thereafter it is relaxing on the beach – or not!
Minimum 4 pax.
